SDCC is never counted in the same way as these types of 'convention' as it's not fan related, nor set out in the same way i.e. it's mainly just panels for advertising purposes, with a few very limited signings done.

So if that is all he's done, this is certainly his world first convention appearance in this context

I am going to have to agree with David 100% here. The San Diego COmic Con is only that in name. It is nothing like LFACC, CM or a full weekend convention. The signings are not that often and quite simply pal in comparison to a fan event like a SM/ME or any event done as a fan event.

SDCC is an advertising junket full stop.

If you go literally by "his first signing ever", then SDCC would be that.

However, and this is what David and SM/ME are getting at I guess, in the fan event context what we all go to whether a SM/ME event or any other event, then this is his first Worldwide event/signing or convention.

To me, a convention is over a weekend where you eat fast food, have little sleep, go to Tesco for cheap booze, dance to cheesy music, line up for ages chatting to fellow fans for photo sessions and autographs, take photos and autographs back to your hotel room, grab a shower and an hour's sleep and do it all over again.

It is what it is...

P.S. I am really looking forward to SGU as well. Begby in space!!!

What a lousy game that was, it just resets to the beginning but then imagine, Jack in full uniform on your doorstep.  Great beginning to the character, but surely you would not be so laidback if it happened to you?

I havent been this excited about Stargate for a long time!

I would probally squeal and start jumping up and down. But that's just me. Did anyone else notice that RDA had put weight on?
On a more relvant note I thought David was fantastic. Also I told him on his twitter to come look at all this love for him. He said he was very excited about all the lovely comments.
Wish I could afford to go see him though.

Will you be putting extra autograph & photoshoot tickets on the store at some point for David ?

[Queen_Sindel]

They should be available in the store at some point. If the extra tickets don't go on sale before the show they will be sold at the reg desk at the event.

[Serenitas1985]

Looking forward to meeting him......am quite liking SGU - I didn't think I would, but it is intriguing (Robert Carlyle or Ming Na would be ace to meet)

[BeatrixKiddo88]

Awww I'm going to have to start coming to SG events now.

Never seen SG1 or Atlantis but I started watching SGU and I LOVE it!!!

If the next event is mainly SGU people I will come. Really want to meet David as well as Alaina and Robert!
