New York Comic-Con is this weekend! Frontalot will be loitering often at the Dumbrella booth (#1856), as is his wont. Come say hello to the wonderful people who make the beautiful things (and also to Front, say hi). Front may occasionally also be found near the C&H and PA booths. We hear Bl4k Lotus is on the scene playing Magic or some shit. Conventions! Wheee!

Yet more WHEEEE! is in waiting at the Nerdcore Rising: The Movie New York Premiere on Friday the 13th. Shows are at 8PM and 10:15 at 92YTribeca, 200 Hudson Street (at Canal). Buy yourself a ticket! Buy three if you have friends or are of incomprehensible girth. Front and cohorts will be there after each showing to beat-box and bust a small number of rhymes. Not only that, but you should psych yourself up ahead of time with director Negin's continuing efforts to document the band's glory: a decidedly glory-free second installment of the Final Boss tour vid-blog is freshly posted. Check it out, and don't miss part one either.

Hey, remember Nerdapalooza? It was rad. Photographic proof: a slideshow. Hey, remember SxSW? Want to sponsor a Nerdcore showcase at your party there this year? Want to sponsor the official nerdcore showcase? Let us know.

Frontalot was seen to play skeeball and drink beverages in the lower east side last night, alongside hosters, painters, and history hax0rs. Earlier, he had watched a rough cut of Keep Eye On Ball (with scoring by Gm7), a film which made Front want to exercise. This feeling had dissipated by morning.

Saturday! Glorious Saturday. That is when Front will wander around ROFLThing in NYC as a "Featured Guest." Those of you who are extremely far away from New York on Saturday might instead attend the Portland, OR, screening of Nerdcore Rising at the NW Film Center (tix online). Or seek other local comforts. We are led to understand that Texas, for instance, offers barbeque.

Front thinks the United States is a pretty awesome place to be from today. He is headed to the local cafe to see things happen on teevee with everyone else from the neighborhood. Congratulations, hive mind of entire nation! You made a good decision this time. Front thanks you.
