Droves of people were in every direction outside of the convention center, all with the same goal of making their way inside to grab lanyards, booklets, and bags. And then, of course, the packed floor with fully setup booths with comic books, figurines, and collectibles.

I randomly discovered a band in 2007 on a kind-of-sort-of obscure forum, and I became obsessed with the album that was spoken about. For some reason, despite being a fan of the album, I never checked if the band had more stuff.
