Usually a "dealer". Kinda makes you wonder what goes on "out there" and that we are so insignificant that we're not allowed to know too. Kinda like goverment properganda. damn! the man they call 'Animal mother' was top of my must meet list Me too - poontang ! I don't think you really wanted to say that word did you, Dufs?

When he was first announced I managed to get an email to him (via a trusted third party-sadly I don't have Adam's personal email). He responded the same day saying he knew nothing about the event and it was unlikely he would be there. My guess is the person you should be angry with is his agent or whoever you deal with. I'm as upset as everyone else that Adam's not coming. I would travel half way round the world to meet him (oh, I've done that). I'm not surprised by this news. I heard months ago that Adam would not be able to make it to the UK for this event. I was hoping to be proved wrong though. You could've said something back then and saved a few people a lot of money. Pointless to have mentioned it now. Would anyone have believed me if I had said anything earlier? I know that Adam's schedule can change at very short notice but I first heard about him not coming back in May. I was crossing my fingers that circumstances might have changed between then and now.

Moderators DavidB Posted September 15, 2008 Moderators Share Posted September 15, 2008 It wouldn't be the first time a guest was unaware of their schedule at a certain point in time. I've worked with guests who had no detailed knowledge of what they were attending until fairly close to an event. It does happen. Obviously Jason will be able to reply to you with the specifics of this situation though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 (edited) It's nice to see that you believe this "trusted third party" so much. But I am sure you understand most people on here are quite weary about such statements. Nearly everyone has heard some stories about guests or possible cancellations before from dealers, wanna be agents, people "in the know", people who "know someone who know someone" - that's how rumours start, and they often don't come true. I'm not saying you are lying. But I don't think it's appropriate to put the blame on Adam's agent here. Granted, agents have screwed up in the past and will screw up in the future. But still, they are the ones who often know the guest's schedule way better than the guest itself. EDIT: David, why do you type faster than me?

This trusted third party apart from being a dear friend acts as a go-between. She has passed messages between Adam and me a few times. I can understand you being wary, I was at first but Adam himself confirmed that the messages do get passed on and that it was him replying. I have no reason to lie about how I knew. I'm just as disappointed not to be seeing Adam again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orlilover Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 OH what a surprise. My hubby and i knew that he was going to cancel. I wonder how many more times that he will cancel. Its a shame though because we really wanted to see him. Never mind lets hopw that SM gets a more loyal and better guest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicky Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 OH what a surprise. My hubby and i knew that he was going to cancel. How did you know?

Queen_Sindel Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 He's got quite a track record of prior cancellations, nicky. Think track record worse than Michael Biehn. That's probably what orlilover is coming from. I admit, if a guest has cancelled several times before I am a little more sceptic than usual if they'll show myself.

Queen_Sindel Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 For Showmasters events yes, but both do have a rather well known track records cancelling other organisers' events as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lams9999 Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 For Showmasters events yes, but both do have a rather well known track records cancelling other organisers' events as well. Oh yes Biehn cancelled at least twice in European countries last year. We'll see what happens this year. But I think the world record of cancellations still owns to Terry Farell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffy2k Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 (edited) I know Adam has cancelled other organisers events due to work. He is scheduled to be in the UK again next year but you never know if he'll be able to make it, must be a busy man. I learned a long time ago not to put everything on one guest attending a con/event in case they cancel and you get disappointed. Its best if you are going to see more than one person then hopefully you'll get to see someone you want. Know this is not always easy i have myself travelled abroad to see one guest who cancelled and it cost me a fortune.
