BCDR05 Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 JS will be in Brisbane 21st, 22nd and 23rd of April 2006 for the Australian Comic Book Convention. I am going, with or without my General Lee which we've just built and they've given us permission to take up to him, cause it's only an hour away! COME ON FOLKS! I need some enthusiasm to tow it up there! HELP ME OUT HERE!!!!! Skipper Duke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke_It! Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Pay for an airfair ticket from NZ to Brisbane and I'd do anything I could to help! I'd push the thing if I needed to... But seriously...Lucky YOU... going to meet him...It's depressing me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCDR05 Posted April 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 I do believe John is visiting New Zealand very soon and perhaps for the same show. Can't gaurantee it's for the same show, but I KNOW he's coming your way VERY SOON! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julieduke Posted April 7, 2006 Report Share Posted April 7, 2006 Well, that show will be a little hard for me because I live in Cleveland,Ohio USA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCDR05 Posted April 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 YES! John IS coming to New Zealand very soon. I'm not sure on details, but I found out he was coming to Australia because someone else told me he was visiting here and New Zealand! I will get back to you as soon as I know! I get it now! I mixed up who was who! Keep an eye out on this page and I'll see if I can find out for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iloveschnieder Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 Oh you lucky dog you! You have to give us all the details after you see him! Oh you have to bring your General Lee! Are there many GL's in Austraila? Have fun! Btw what does John have to do with comics?????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCDR05 Posted April 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 we don't have Dodge Chargers in Australia, if we do they are imported. We built a four wheel drive buggy instead and painted it up! You can see it at our personal website atpmr01.co.nrUse your address bar instead of your regular search engine to get to it! And don't forget to sign the guestbook!I'd say John is at the comic book festival for Smallville/Superman. We are at the beginning of Season 4 over here. Lois Lane came into it last week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julieduke Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Well, I think the first episode of the fourth season has to be my favorite from Smallville. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke_It! Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 Well, I found out where he's going to be in New Zealand.It's the Armageddon Pulp Culture Expo, and it's (sadly) in Wellington, which is somewhere over $100 to get to from where I am (at least).And, topping it off, apparently the "Orginal General Lee" is going to be there too.Ahhh, well... I'm sure I'll get over it at some point! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aussie Duke Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 Hello, my name is Jansen, well, I meet John yesterday 22nd in Brisbane! a dream come true! got an 8 x 10 autographed glossy photo of him with his General with him doing a donut in it! plus he signed a photo of me aged 10 back in 82 at knotts berry Farm standing with a General, where I also saw Tom Wopat on stage singing the same day! I told John all about this and he was blown away! I also let him know that i'll be visiting Covington and staying at the Holiday Inn in Conyers this August with which he suggested I try the spaghetti! He commented on my T-Shirt which had the words 'Genuine R/T Charger' on it and I was able to pose for a photo with him and my 10 year old boy who's a fan too. Boy though, I look like crap standing next to this guy, just a bad photo I guess, yes thats it, must be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCDR05 Posted April 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 Oh wow! Can you send some pics of our car through too? I hope you won't mind? We tried to get some pics, but there were people standing around it and leaning on it etc all day. We hope you liked it! Were you there when we got it signed by John? I call him the 'Blah blah blah' man now! I'm sure you know what I mean from that! That was a crack up! LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussie Duke Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 Ok will do,, I got 2 shots of it but there was this guy leaning on it eating a pizza off the rear tire!! pissed me off but my shots kind of worked around him. How disrespectful some people can be!!sorry, i missed the signing, that must of been a extremely amazing experience for you?! Bo Duke with your ride dude!!!!YEEHAW!

BCDR05 Posted April 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 Are you kidding me?! That's when we were there trying to take our pics! And there was a lady leaning on it drawing? We got rid of her quick ourselves! Perhaps you saw us? Paul had the bright orange and black business shirt on! That's weird! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussie Duke Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 Writing on it?!!! I did notice a guy in a bright orange shirt and said to my son "I think he may own the General" wanted to ask and say great work but things were a bit hectic! YEEHAW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCDR05 Posted April 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 No, not writing on the buggy, she was drawing in her own book, but leaning on the buggy to do so! Paul didn't like that. Yep, that was probably us! You couldn't miss Paul's shirt, that's for sure! You should've said hello, we would've been happy to oblige! We actually told some boys to get into the buggy during the day and took their pic with it. They were just going to stand beside it, but I said, nah! go on, get in! They were excited, so it was fun! There was a film crew going around all day filming the buggy too, so I'll have to get onto Daniel (the organizer) and see if a copy is available. It was being filmed for the convention. Daniel was great to us! A tiny man, but with a BIG heart! He organised the whole thing for us after we asked him if we could do it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussie Duke Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 Thats awesome!I sent the pics through just now, hope they're ok.Don't know if anyone noticed but the t-shirt John was wearing was the same colour as the t-shirt he wore under his cream shirt in the Dukes of Hazzard. I wonder if that was intensional?YEEHAW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
