San Diego Comic-Con and X-Sanguin V

Not that S.D. people need reminding, but some of you outside of SoCal may be interested in attending the San Diego Comic-Con, the biggest comic convention in the world. There is a lot more to the Comic-Con than comics books though; the SD Comic-Con is a gathering ground for the sci-fi, fantasy, movie, tv, and video game industries. Info at : http://www.comic-con.org/index.php

Anyone attending the festivities should also check out X-Sanguin. A lavish party thrown by the Brotherhood on the Saturday of that weekend. This event always sells out. Tom King and Brenden Cahill of club Decade will be spinning.
