Yeah, I don't know why they wouldn't sell merch on Saturday. But it's possible that they are providing a free mini poster or flyer to be signed. That's how the autograph sessions I've been to at WonderCon have been. But all the others have been bring your own item or buy something there. So hmmm....

I was torn over whether to drive up from LA just for a day or stay for both days, but looking at the schedule, I guess I have to go for both days now...and start driving much earlier in the day than planned. I hope to meet all of you there, too!

..lol what. Marina looks like a beginner still compared to Reina wth are you on. Her body language on stage is still ridiculously amateur and she can barely hold the mic properly.
She's a good singer, no doubt, but she hardly outshines Reina.

Yeah she's mega awkward on stage but I mean Vocal Range. Vocally IMO i think she WAY outclasses Reina, well as a rock singer anyway....

Reina has problems with lower keys, she's acknowledged this herself even. And yes Marina has more volume but I wouldn't say her technique is better at all. Reina does higher notes way better than her as well, for obvious reasons. Marina is good at those things that Reina aren't, and the other way around so I'd say it's a great double vocal to have. Marina has a deeper voice than Reina, but we all knew that already. Aichan and Reina worked wonderfully vocally because they had the same differences. Only Aichan is miles better than Marina but that goes without saying of course.

It would make more sense to stay over, but I'm still thinking in terms of a one-day turnaround...

Marina's voice is pretty good, but after listening to more and more songs I feel like she sounds the same all the time. Like the same emotion (or lack thereof??). We've already seen how Reina can sing so many types of song. Well, she's probably had a ton more experience than Marina anyway.
