I might make an appearance. All day. Every day. On some stages and stuff.

Also, what's this about a boycott? *off to do some Googling*

Hey, there was a full-page article in the Ottawa Citizen, was there not? You can't buy that kind of publicity! ;)

The cast was hoping they were going to picket close to the gates so that we could go and play with them.

Suggested signs included:
-"We were here first"
-"My sword doesn't fire blanks"
-"I like signs"
