Hey Friends, I woke up to a sad email stating that NakamaCon (Madison, WI May 27-29) has been canceled. The con has fallen apart due to illness and accidents with staff, a loss of their convention sponsor, and some other organizational issues...
Kind of a bummer, that the con has been canceled because its close to home and I was hoping to chill with cool Madison artists and friends again.
Last year was NakamaCon's first year and honestly, wasn't that great of a con but I was hoping it would have been improved upon for this year and was looking forward to displaying my work again.
Oh well, Maybe it will come back next year.

Um... I'll send you a note with my address where and when you can drop off your donation. Much appreciated
Yup! Hopefully in 2012. See you next week at Shuto(?)
Even though AA was a horrible experience I still had fun hanging out with the artists in the other room and living so close to Madison it was nice not having hotel and travel expenses to worry about. I was hoping to see a big improvement with the con this year but I guess its not to be.
