Re: All-Con, Dallas, Texas
Aww, thanks guys!!
Ha, you can see my (red) head in the bottom right corner of parts of the videos that John shared. I was at the far right end of the front row, and I was sitting very close to the speakers on stage - the sound system speakers, but also the people speakers  - so although my video got cut off abruptly (see the notes in the YouTube description), it has a better sound quality I think. Just got it uploaded this evening, so here it is:

Re: All-Con, Dallas, Texas
Great video! Thanks for uploading. I could understand everything this time and it's very much appreciated. Also great quality, did you use a cellphone? Whichever you have, keep it! It does make great videos.
Dirk and Laurette are just lovely together.

Re: All-Con, Dallas, Texas
With thanks to Vballspieler, who found the link before I did, here's a video of most of Sunday's panel. For the record, I'd like to thank the original poster, Mina Frannea, for recording this in the first place:

Re: All-Con, Dallas, Texas
Thanks for the link! They all looked a bit knackered, I wonder what they did the night before.

They had a really good time! The wrap party they didn't get 40 years ago...
Dirk says he had a really good time last weekend. He was really happy to catch up in person with all of them, too.

Re: All-Con, Dallas, Texas
Great videos
Regardless of how much time it has been, it's nice they thought of that as the wrap party they never had (even though the show ended too soon for them). Enjoyed listening to them sharing their fond memories, and of Richard Hatch, Lorne Greene, Fred Astaire etc, it's lovely.

Re: All-Con, Dallas, Texas
That's so great. You can feel the friendship they share, they all get along so well. It was already visible on all the behind the scene footage on the DVDs.
A good friend told me once, true friends always stay friends. They might not be able to see each other for long periods of time, sometimes even for years. But when they do, it's like they never had been separated. They reconnect instantly and there are no hard feelings at all. I think that's what we see in the videos.

Re: All-Con, Dallas, Texas
Hey y'all... Any news or thoughts about the 2020 All-Con BSG reunion? They say they're doing it all again.
Don't see Dirk's name on this one yet... But it seems pretty early for him to commit.

I missed the reunion this year. If only I had known earlier, I would have flown in a couple of days earlier. Anyway if they're having the reunion again and Dirk joins them, I will do my utmost best to get there.
