after the manos show

[sonic8or]

I don't know about anyone else, but I was rather let down at the quickness that the guys left after the show. They basically jogged off stage and ducked out during the Manos II trailer. They also skipped out afterwards last year. I drove 7 hours to see the live show and I'm sure others from much further and they cold shouldered the fans both times. I felt bad for the small group of people with DVDs and those that had bots that left disappointed. It's not too much to spare one measly hour to photo-op with those that put food on your table, a roof over your head and make sure you don't have to get a "regular" job like most of us. I'd be grateful for every fan if I was able to do what these guys do. Cinematic Titanic meets and greets the fans after each screening.

I don't know if perhaps it was just a sad coincidence for both years or if they do this every time, but I found it to be a bit rude. It's one show, not a tour. I'm not directly blaming them, but if it were due to a scheduling issue, someone needs to re-take a time management class. For Birdemic, I'll just see it at my local theater instead of a planned trip.

Sorry for the long rant....

Man, I thought they would do something like that either before or after the show..
That does kinda suck that they wouldn't sign autographs or anything

Last show they were kinda cornered by a group of us outside the side door by the sat trucks for a minute but yes, it seems like the days of them hanging out in front of the stage to do handshakes and autographs has passed us by. The Manos 2 guys hung around outside taking pics with everyone and asking questions but 'the boys' vanished quickly. Our drive is only 4 hours to come to Nashville but I did feel bad for those that brought their bots because speaking from experience, dragging bots around is a pain in the butt and to come away with them unsigned would be crappy (if that was indeed their intent.) I know one group's certainly was because we talked to them at length. The same lady that nearly had her head whacked with the camera on the crane in the back.
