I wish there was an anime con equivalent for music artists. music shops selling records and CDs at the Exhibitor hall. Artist Alley making photocards and charms and prints.
New and up-and-coming singers/indie bands having scheduled performances throughout the weekend.

I think I'd call it ApolloCon

#MilitaryHeroCon's #ApolloCon event makes its Fort Carson debut Oct 10–12! Guests include the amazing @bubblegumvoice.bsky.social (#HelloKitty #OnePiece #ZenlessZoneZero) & @leilanishiu.bsky.social (#TheMandalorian #ObiWanKenobi #TheBookOfBobaFett)! Don't miss out! #FortCarson

... when I run a dealer's rm, I expect dealers who have to cancel to, well, CANCEL, not just fail to show up or call or anything. #apollocon

@WriterTalthos Glad you enjoyed ApolloCon- hope it worked well for you! (And hope you don't catch my crud...)

Recovering from ApolloCon; still a bit of sore throat & crud. Chloraseptic, as ever, is USELESS. And I'm EXHAUSTED, need more sleep.

Tried scanning pages for an upcoming TPB collection today. Discovered my scanner is a cheap piece of shit. Hitting Fry's after @apollocon .

A-Kon profitable but not so much as prior years; ApolloCon done only to fill a gap; Anime Overload just below break-even...

I am reminded of seeing Bradley Denton's pedalboard expanding every ApolloCon and FenCon.
