We wrap up SNS in true VanCon style: with a big group of the SPN crew coming on stage to join in on the fun. You'll also see DJ Qualls & Alexander Calvert (who we'd actually see - many of us for the 1st time - the next day at his panel). Hope you've enjoyed the SNS videos. There's one more post to go!
I guess y'all aren't into these videos too much. Well, you'll be happy to know I'm nearly at the end. Only 4 more video posts after this one.
Rob & Jason sing the ethereal "Hallelujah" & then we get some Station Breaks action.

Time to start posting about my trip to VanCon in October (finally!). Sorry it's taken me so long. So many reasons, but I want to get these posts done before I totally forget what happened (if I haven't already). I'll try to watch videos of some of the panels to help pepper these posts with some memories.
These were taken with my smaller Canon camera and are not the greatest quality. My normal practice is to take a few shots with this camera at the beginning of each panel and then switch to my bigger Canon camera for the rest. I rarely do any editing on these, they're simply presented "as is". Hopefully, you'll still find these pics enjoyable despite the light/contrast or blurriness issues. :)
Most of Jason's panel was shown in the videos I posted all last week, but I did manage to take a few photos. Jason's such a nice, easy-going guy with such a dry sense of humor! Lots of talk about the then up-coming Seattle Marathon. He described his association with SPN as being "Supernatural adjacent". When the subject of acting in an episode of the show was brought up, Jason responded with, "If I was singing Meghan Trainor in a bar, Dean would probably shoot me." LOL But he'd love to be on the show, in any way possible.

One final Station Breaks song from Jason, Rob, & Billy at the end of Jason's panel. :)
Two more gems from Jason's Q&A + Concert = Quoncert.
A couple more videos from Jason's panel. Beautiful music. Love his voice so much! :)
Feel like I've been editing these videos forever the past week or so, trying all I could to get them to look good. No small task thanks to the overexposure due to the super bright stage lighting during the panels. Thankfully, it was better during the SNS. Anyway, I've watched these videos A LOT! Good thing I love these songs! ;)
The first song is pretty exceptional, because I believe it's the first time we get to hear Billy Moran sing! At least it's the first I've heard him solo. Enjoy! :D

Remember way back in May? No? Well, I posted the initial set of caps from the awesome JibCon8 video by amberdreams and...never posted the 2nd set of caps! Until now... *g*
This set is in beautiful Black & White! :D
I have 2 sets of the caps, a Small Set (if you just want the highlights) and the Full Set (if you want everything). Or you can just grab from the preview caps under the cut or select from the Small Set on SlickPic.
And here's Amber's great video again for your viewing pleasure! Please go over to youtube and leave her some love!
( Lots of caps... )

This is my last video of the con. :(
Sorry about the blurry beginning, but it clears up real fast and in time for the stage jump. *glees* Btw, the boys ran up onto the stage from the back of the room (or at least the doors on the side). I see they did it again at PittCon, too - but they did it here at VanCon first!
Hope you've enjoyed all these videos. There will be some filming-on-location ones once 13x03 airs. ;)

This is the only opening-of-the-day video I have from this con and I'm sad I don't have the other ones from Friday and Saturday. Especially Saturday's because Rich did a whole monologue about the fandom and it was so great! I'll have to see if someone else has it out there on youtube.
Anyway, this is in 2 parts because it was just a bit too long to upload to youtube. Rob and the band kick things off with my favorite Doobie Brothers song, "Long Train Running" and then we have Rich going into his song "Rob Loves Bottoms"! I mean the reason the video is shaking is because I was laughing so much! LOL XD
Richard: "Let me tell you something, if you're here to see Jared and Jensen and you don't love their bottoms my friend you're dead."
Oh! And according to Rich the boys don't fart (oh, yeah? history proves Jared does!) but instead have "mystical butterflies that come out of their anus and take their smell far, far away!" Yes, the boys are..."sunshine wearing flannel". I love that description...so true! :D
Richard: "You will be so overwhelmed that you will overspend. You will engage in a practice we call fiscal irresponsibility and there's not a damned thing anybody can do to stop you. Not a damned thing. Nope. I can warn you all day long, but you will just look at me and say, 'Old man...what do you know? I need another 7 foot face of Jared Padalecki in my room. You can almost see wall. I need to cover it up with vinyl Misha.'"

The 2 final songs and videos from the Saturday Night Special!
I love the song "Amazing". Rob first sang this for us at last year's SNS and it's just as beautiful as ever. Then everyone gets on stage, including a lot of the SPN to join in on the kazoo solos for "Medicated".

We had a special treat with getting to hear Executive Producer/Director, Robert Singer, play harmonica & sing for us! Very cool! Then we have Jason Manns join Rob once again.
We're reaching back a year for these, because I never actually capped my video of Jensen singing at the SNS from VanCon 2016...until now. He sang 2 songs that year, "Fare Thee Well" with Rob and then "Simple Man" with Jason. Unfortunately, the lighting was a little harsh that year, so everyone's a little bright and overexposed. I did what I could with my image editor, but they're still not as good as I'd like. These caps cover both songs. Enjoy!

Jensen Sings At VanCon 2016: Video Caps

Here's the last 2 Karaoke videos.
Our last surprise guest was Osric Chau!!! He didn't sing a song though...no, he had a song sung to him! Btw, if you watch the first video you'll notice some major camera shake and black screen in the middle. Well, that's because Jason Manns started going though Osric's backpack and pulled out a pair of grey underwear. Which he then rolled up and tossed into the crowd - and right at me! Amazingly, I caught them with my left hand (I was holding my camera in the right hand). I didn't even think about it. It was just a gut reaction to reach out and catch them. I quickly looked around to see if anyone wanted to take the garment off my hands and a gal next to me eagerly took them. But then almost immediately, a gal approached us (I'm assuming she was a Creation volunteer) and took the underwear away. So yeah, I caught the underwear....hope they were clean. LOL
And of course, you can't have Karaoke without singing the show's unofficial theme song at the end. Seemed a little odd that they didn't invite the Creation volunteers onto the stage as they usually do. Maybe because they're paid now? Anyway, singing that song with the cast and fellow fans is always such a magical moment. :D

Rob & Louden Swain kicked off Saturday and then we got a fun panel with Gil and the girls! Ruth brought her usual hotel goodies and when she selected one for a fan Gil would provide sexy, deep-voiced commentary about the item! *fans self*

I don't normally take photos during Karaoke, preferring to shoot video instead, but I did snap a few photos at the beginning and then of the group hug for Osric!

Briana and Gil singing leads on these 2 videos!
Personally, I thought the 2nd song was a little slow for Karaoke, but oh, well!
