Any airplay you're willing to give them would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. - THE DEMENTIA FAN SHOWCASE The folks at Karaoke Joe's on the 13th floor are graciously again hosting the Dementia Fan Showcase this year! DJ Particle will of course be our MC, and it will start at 11:00 am on Sunday morning, lasting until about 12:30 pm. Details on the Showcase are at marscondementia.com/dementia-fan-showcase , so if you have a song of your own to sing, want to sing a Karaoke comedy music cover, do a lip-sync, or whatever your fan-expression of choice is, even if you just want to watch, come join us and be a part of the fun! - DEMENTIA SMACKDOWN WRESTLING: MARSCON 2012 BATTLE ROYAL Saturday night at Midnight (or shortly thereafter) in the AV Club room we will be showing this year's installment of "Dementia Smackdown Wrestling", the MarsCon 2012 Battle Royal! Come see the virtual violence as all your favorite MarsCon Dementia Track acts digitally duke it out in a 20 man battle royal of senseless slaughter for silly supremacy! Featuring live commentary by Commissioner J.P. Tuesday and Duke ‘Flyboy’ DuJour. - THE FuMP JUKEBOX If you're a FuMP main page or FuMP Sideshow contributing act and you're interested in performing a song on the main stage during the FuMP Jukebox concert on Sunday at 2:30 pm, please email me at thegreatlukeski@gmail.com and let me know. So far we have DJ PARTICLE, JEFF REUBEN, BETH KINDERMAN, and DERWOOD BOWEN signed up, but there's room for a couple more. - "TABLE 27" IS LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS Our huge double-wide merch table for the acts of the MarsCon Dementia Track is returning once again, and we need people to staff it. In exchange for your services, you’ll get a free badge into MarsCon for the weekend. Table 27 is just outside the doors to the Main Stage room, and will be open during the Dementia Track concerts, on Friday from 8:30 pm to 12:30 am, Saturday from 1:30 pm to 6:30 pm, and on Sunday from 12:30 pm to 4:30 pm. We will do our best to make sure our volunteers don’t miss out on anything at MarsCon they really want to see or do. We have 1 volunteer already, and we’re looking for 3 to 5 more volunteers to help run the table during those times. Our goal is to have 2 or 3 people behind the table at all times when it is open, so if we have 6 volunteers, that should be easy to figure out. So if you’re willing to give us some of your time at MarsCon to help the Dementia Track in exchange for a free weekend badge, email me at thegreatlukeski@gmail.com . Thanks. - PRE-REGISTRATION ENDS ON JANUARY 31st Pre-registration for a 3-Day badge to MarsCon is just $45.00 thru Jan. 31st, 2012. After that it will cost $60.00 at the door.
