Considering some of the editing on our Upcoming Cons page, I decided to make a post about. In particular, Conglomeration and Starbase Indy needed mentioning.

Massive convention update
We’ve found out the dates for a lot of upcoming geek conventions, and have listed them on our main Conventions page. Plenty of anime cons.
Forego Fandom Fest
We here at Icygeek try to have a complete list of Louisville geek conventions. However, we had to make an executive decision and remove Fandom Fest from or listings. Without warning their event, which was to take place next weekend, was moved from the state fairgrounds to am event center area in Jefferson Mall. Also, Weird Al Yankovic has decided to cancel his appearance, and there are no refunds offered by the con.

The Death of a Geek Shop
Yesterday (as I wrote this), I found out that the best place for me to actually play Magic: the Gathering, one Silver Creek Game Shop in Sellersburg, Indiana, had closed for good three hours earlier. I wished I had listened to my intuition and went to visit earlier that day. Since then I have thought a lot about what might have gone wrong for it, what has gone wrong for other “geek shops” I’ve known, and lessons from all of them gathered so that another one might grace the Sunnyside of Louisville sometime. I plan to make this a more universal article, so if you are not from around the Kentuckiana area do not fear…you will find things germane to you as well.
