We regret to announce…
… that Applegeeks and Johnny Wander will be unable to attend Anime USA 2009. We will miss them greatly, but hope to see them both back next year!
Also, due to unforeseen circumstances, we have lost much of our music library for the Karaoke event. If possible, we would greatly appreciate it if participants in the Open Mic and Karaoke Contest could provide their own music.
