hey guys, i’m putting it out there that glam-rock-british-comedy is pretty blatantly stealing gif sets. they’ve blocked me, since i sent them a message to please stop after they reposted my one with noel from new year’s eve 2015, and have ramped up the sets they’ve taken from myslef and others. i’ve seen my set of noel and richard, from the BFQ series on their page, (my original is here) as well as the one i just did of richard spinning noel in the BFQ 2017 (my original for that one is here) and ALL of the sets i did from the keith brymer jones vidoe (here, here, and here). also, my screen shots of noel from another episode (that original set is here).
the person has also stolen a couple of @bythepoweroftopshop‘s edits (her originals of noel on countdown are here and here),even going so far as to remove her watermarks. there is an edit of a dave bennett photos of noel that she did too (sorry andie, i can’t find your original for that one!). the user has even stolen @wurmstache‘s photos, which she generously shared, of noel doing a warm-up gig at amused moose back in march of 2015 (her original photos are here), again removing the watermark.
if you see something with glam-rock-british-comedy’s fingerprints on it, please consider that they may have stolen the work from someone else. as always, please feel free to message me if you’re not sure about a set or edit. most of the creators have a style that’s uniquely theirs, and i have a good eye for them.
my prints from @wurmstache arrived today and i’m SO HAPPY!!! they’re even more beautiful in person i love them so much. i’ve put the mini-prints up already and i’m going to pick up some nice matching frames for the originals. thank you so much!!!! 💚
wurmstache replied to your post: i have no idea why or how that photoset reblogged...
You were at the top of my dash with the same post three times, and I genuinely just assumed you were having a cockles meltdown and slamming the reblog button in a kind of frenzied spasm. But okay we’ll go with your story :P.
HAHAHA. I mean.. that is also perfectly plausible :p They are killing me here
But no. I think my laptop is having a bit of a Moment and is registering the occasional click as a double click. Or triple. Apparently. SIGH.
Okay third nomination. What can I say, I want to spread the love :’) And I can’t go without nominating @wurmstache. Becky’s another I happened upon at a SPN convention, and has proved to be one of the kindest, positive people I’ve come across on this ridiculous journey Supernatural’s taken me on. We’ve shared some pretty intense fandom experiences (4am wake-up leading to conga-ing around A14? Yeah boi!) which has led to pretty solid friendship, solidified by our mutual love for @mishacollins, of course :) (Can I sub-nominate you, Misha? <3333333) Her passion for random acts and GISH and just being kind inspires me to no end, and I honestly consider her to be my fandom big sister <3
SO. MY PURCON SUMMARY :D I vlogged extensively and I’ll edit it together soon but for now, the text version.
First let me say this: A16, take the backburner. Sorry but... this? SWOON.
In the vein of my A14 write up, (here x) I’mma do a list of my top moments, but in no specific order this time lol
Being at a convention in a foreign country! I speak very little German but it was SO COOL when people came up to us and started talking in German and I actually got the meaning and was able to reply? (albeit it with like.. ‘Ja’ lmao) I’m so grateful for those who took the time to understand our (particularly my fast-paced..) English :’D
Hanging out with my friends again, in a foreign country! Us all booking Purcon happened very quickly, and I’m so immensely glad we did. I love my small corner of the SPN Family so very, very much
The guests were all so happy! Watching Mark taking photo ops was a joy – he was smiling and hugging everyone and awwwwww. The panels were great, particularly Mark and Misha’s, and watching Tamoh getting all hyped up doing the auction was AMAZING, one of the funniest moments of the weekend. In general the atmosphere was really chilled and nice (esp compared to A16) and allowed for a much nicer time overall.
Cocktails with Castiel!!!!! I was hyper before he even got into the room lmao. Then he told us he was gonna date all of us. Very much approved. We were the second table he got round to – I was standing like a millimetre from him thanks to @autumnpsyche graciously letting me, and yes I used the opportunity to get in a few sneaky hand brushes ;D (who wouldn’t?!) We talked about the clusterfuck (#clusterfuck) that was A16 – here’s a conversation I had with him…
Me: Jared and Jensen looked pretty floored the entire weekend :\
Misha: Well, you know, they always look terrible, but especially when combined with jet lag.
Me: But you look great!
Misha: *laughing and making grand hand gestures* WELL I KNOW RIGHT? *takes a moment to compose himself*
I felt v proud :’D And then he went to shake my hand when it was time for him to leave, but instead he hi-fived me and I basically died and went to heaven and that was my weekend already made.
Me and Becky also talked to his manager Julie, who had dropped by our conga coffee lounge last year, and got some inside scoops on things like Rogue. Was cool! Here’s a scribbling we did whilst Misha was at all the other tables xD
(JCB is Misha’s handler/maybe manager :D)
Okay so I have a dream to sing with Jensen. But Jason is much more accessible and has a voice I absolutely ADORE, so!!! I bought an autograph, and luckily (for me) there was nobody there when I got to the autos so I asked if I could sing with him, and he agreed, and the handler agreed to video it!! So you’ll see that soon :D Loved doing that
Misha’s autograph. Oh man you guys.
So the conga. Y’all remember it? Here’s a link to a refresher if not. It was incredible, me and my friends (some of whom I met at that coffee lounge!!!) talk about it all the time even a year on. Well @wurmstache made a t-shirt for it, and we thought we would give Misha one because, y’know, he’s the entire reason it was able to happen. So me, @rambleonassbutt and Becky went to the autos together. Me and Sarah got our stuff signed, and then Becky explained about the shirt and we all gushed to Misha about everything the conga coffee lounge did for our lives. And then he did this.
We were all extremely emotionally compromised. We thought he was just gonna sign it, but then he just kept writing and we all got progressively weepier. I’m so, so grateful to you Misha.
There’s another thing we did involving the conga which y’all will find out about very soon ;D
So the elevators at the Hilon work thus: you get in, swipe your card and then press your floor. We didn’t realise this. Got into the elevator, pressed our floor number… and kept going up. To floor 11.
And then the door opened and Tim Omundsson was standing there.
HAHAHAA.
I wish I could have seen the looks on our faces.
We wandered into Dusseldorf a tiny bit to go get breakfast, and oh my god guys, the pastries. They were incredible. I want a German bakery in my town. Plus I bought a tonne of kinder Bueno and Milka. Mmmmmmmmm.
Singing Fare Thee Well in the lobby whilst walking backwards and waving to my friends as we left the Hilton to go back to the airport xD I can’t remember who suggested it but it was fun haha
Going back to Julie the badass manager - she laid down the LAW when it came to organisation. Things could have gone very badly but with her help, it all ended up smooth as you like. Thank you Julie <3
Actually staying in the Hilton! Super convenient, super plush, INCREDIBLY comfy beds.
The merch stalls were all REALLY GOOD. My new hoodie I’m showing off in my photo ops is my new favourite thing :D
I asked Misha a question! But the best thing about it was getting to have that ‘question asking’ view of the panel for once. :)
And finally... karaoke! It’s always been my dream to get up and sing on stage for lots of people so to be able to do it with my SPN family was a dream come true! I was really, really worried I wouldn’t get chosen (didn’t last week at Asylum; so it goes), so when I did and my friends cheered it was like… AAAAHHHH. And they all came up with me to sing and dance and everyone cheered when I started singing and Osric filmed the entire thing on my camera and thanked me, and Tim Omundsson both privately shook my hand and congratulated me and then shouted out ‘SHE CAN FUCKING SING’ to the crowd???
I. Uhhh. Was extremely emotionally compromised and may have spent the rest of the evening singing my throat dead and going for a run around the Hilton with Nat and Maggie.Good fuckin times, man.
Here’s the video again :D
Oh and then there was the post-karaoke brioche
So overall I had a convention that rivalled A14, definitely beat it in terms of organisation. THANK YOU to everyone who made it possible <3
