The headliners this time are Andrea Libman (voice of Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy) and Nicole Oliver (voice of Princess Celestia and Cheerilee).Ms. Libman and Ms. Oliver join a star-studded cast of brony community celebs including John Joseco, PixelKitties, and the Bronyville colts, Apple Cider & Chef Sandy. Both of these beloved voice actresses will be available for autographs, and will participate in a Q&A session with the audience.

ReplyDeleteIf only I lived on the east coast...
ReplyDeleteMy head just exploded. If only I lived on the East Coast.
ReplyDeleteCheerilee!
ReplyDeleteAndrea Libman!!
ReplyDeleteParticularly excited because of all the VA's for the mane6 she's has the least info on the web.
I've never even seen what she looks like.
Cruise or ponies.
ReplyDeleteFuck this is hard...
Gah! If I had the disposable income, I would go cross country to be there for that.
ReplyDeleteThose who get to be there for it, you have all my jellies.
If only there weren't an Atlantic in the way

ReplyDeleteHmmm, this totally makes me rethink where I'll be vacationing this winter.
ReplyDeletePity I live 7,000 miles away :|
ReplyDeleteConfound this Ocean! :-(
ReplyDeletelulz, my birthday is on the 7th xD
ReplyDeleteI can totally imagine Andrea Libman going in Pinkie's voice "Oatmeal? Are you crazy?!" and bringing the house down.
ReplyDeleteYou guys are concerned about living on the other side of your country. What about the others, like me, who live on the other side of the world? :-P
ReplyDeleteThe voice actors attending is really awesome. I wonder how it'll be sitting there and having probably hundreds of eyes staring (also probably screaming and/or cheering) waiting for you to do "those" voices. Must feel great for them to get all this appriciation for the work they've done.
Well i live in west Canada, so i guess im not going. :/
ReplyDeleteI might actually take that sixteen hour drive...
ReplyDeleteBah, another occassion when I wish I was randomly in America at the time. I'd enjoy just knowing what Andrea looks like, as I can't find a definite picture of her on google, and she voices my favourite character.
ReplyDeleteSad times.
if I know the really crazy/dark fans like I think I do. I bet half of them will ask Andrea to make a Cupcakes quote and record it.
ReplyDeleteWow, this is actually making me thing about extending my holiday leave on the East coast for a couple more days...

ReplyDeleteAnybody wanna pick up a random filly in Maryland? I wanna go!
ReplyDeleteDammit. If I wasn't dirt poor I'd so be there.
ReplyDeleteDamn I have to get a rag
ReplyDeleteI anticipated all over the screen.
Still can't get over the fact Andrea Libman is attending.
ReplyDeletePinkie Pie AND Fluttershy in one person!!

ReplyDelete@Flutterfan
ReplyDeleteWow, just envisioning it... the lolz
I may have to try and go to this, I want my fluttershy plush autographed =3
ReplyDelete@Flutterfan
ReplyDeleteShe was shown in a season 1 episode of the X-files. Memory is fuzzy, but she was a kid that had a serial killers spirit possess her mind. Foreboding, eh?
I may have to go.
ReplyDeleteIf only I lived on the opposite coast. And in America. And had money to actually travel there. And the time to go there.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, this is amazing.
:| It's not ABOUT Cheerilee and Flutterpie.
ReplyDeleteCELESTIA IS GOING TO BE THERE. HRRRGH, CONFOUND LIVING IN GEORGIA, MY SUN GODDESS IS MUCH TOO HIGH ON THE MAP. Dx<
Oh wow, John Joseco's going to be there, too? Awkward much? Celestia AND Molestia...
I dunno. I almost feel kinda bad for them and how many crazed fans are going to try awkwardly hugging them and latching onto them through out the event. lol
ReplyDeleteI live a few minutes away, but I don't know if I'll be going.
ReplyDeleteProbably not.
Wow, I'd love to meet them just to say how talented I think they all are. I'm considering... this would be cool!
ReplyDeleteAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUGGGGHHHHHHHHHH I want to go so bad! BUT I CAAAAAAAAAN'T. I hope somepony gets really good footage.
ReplyDeleteHaha, the Joseco/Oliver combo is potent!
ReplyDelete$40 + travel expense.
ReplyDeletePass.
Someone's gotta get footage/audio of Andrea Libman doing some off-the-cuff Pinkie Pie/Fluttershy banter or something.
ReplyDelete@Octavia
ReplyDeleteYeah, unfortunately I think you're right on that.
This is starting to look real tempting again.
ReplyDeleteI've been to the Hotel Pennsylvania a few times. Decent place for the price.
ReplyDeleteI went for a totally different type of convention though. I assume it'll smell at least a little bit better for Bronycon.
@Octavia That is why I have a large security staff full of beefy bronies.
ReplyDelete@Cylestia I'm sorry to hear you won't be coming. We'll all have extra fun for you!
ReplyDelete@mycutiemarkisagun I'd run it for free if I could. It costs a lot of money to do these things. Thousands just for the GoHs alone. Thousands more for the venue. Thousands still more for the merch. Thousands more for food and drinks. Putting on a convention is not easy.
ReplyDelete@Purple Tinker
ReplyDeleteCould you clone yourself and send her to Atlanta? Maybe one to LA too? Just kidding, flying all the way from Hawaii to see fam on the East coast around that time, seriously considering taking a side trip to NYC cause of you, keep it up!
@Purple Tinker
ReplyDeleteHeh, thanks!
Wish I could go to to the con , sounds like lotsa fun, but it seems very unlikely for me, even from Florida. Heck, we can't go to shows that are "business write-offs" right now.
ReplyDeleteAgain, sorry for being such trouble, Tinker.
That's it. I'm pushing the UK across the ocean and super gluing it onto New York!
ReplyDeleteLong distances keeping you from poniponiponiALLTHEPONIOMG awesomeness?
ReplyDeleteTime to start thinking with portals!
How awkward is it going to be to have John Joseco and Princess Celestia at the same con...?
ReplyDelete20+ hours away, why couldn't it be closer to Florida? I'm really considering trying to go.
ReplyDeleteSomeone needs to record this!! I want to see how Andrea Libman looks like :DDD But too bad I can't go, since I live in Canada :( anyways, yeahh xDDD
ReplyDeleteOh great, another bronycon I'm gonna miss. Meh, my bets it can't get anymore epic than the last one.
ReplyDelete*reads that voices actors of Fluttershy, Pinkie pie, and Celestia are coming*
*Steals neighbor's wallet and calls friends to make excuses for disappearance and join the escape.*
January 7th will belong to the ponies, FOWARD MARCH
Anyone wondering what Andrea looks like, haven't you ever seen the behind-the-scenes of MLP video???? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hc5e_hZzx9k&feature=channel_video_title
ReplyDeleteSigh... See, I actually live in NY, and most likely the area will be only an hour away by train or so.
ReplyDeleteBut I have no friends who are bronies. :< Wonder if it's worth going by myself.
@Nando Nando, we have brony meetups every month! We're also having a Brony Thanksgiving on Thanksgiving day at my place. You should go to www.meetup.com/bronies-nyc/ and join. There are two full monthly meetups before BroNYCon; you could MAKE some brony friends! )
ReplyDelete@Stephanie I fly to and from FL on a semiregular basis. It's a quick and easy 3-hour-ish flight. :)
ReplyDeletethere's no way I'll be able to get there.
ReplyDeleteAWW COME ON
ReplyDeleteI got to college in NY, but this happens during winter break, the SINGLE two-week period when I'm back home in the midwest. Sure hope the next one's not over spring break.
Chain Algorithm and i think Tarby are going to be there also.
ReplyDeleteQuite the undertaking! May just have to make the trek. Hope it goes well.
ReplyDeleteWhy, why does this have to happen during the winter semester of school? DAMN YOU LAURIER! DAMN YOU FOR HAVING SCHOOL HAPPEN DURING SOMETHING FUN! Ah well, I hope everypony going enjoys them self.
ReplyDeleteI go to school in Florida too, but live in NY, and this should be in my break. I wonder if I should go.
ReplyDeleteI'm calling Coyote to borrow ACME catalog, maybe they have some teleport.
ReplyDelete*uses the trad. Canterlot voice* THE FUN HAS BEEN DOUBLED :D
ReplyDeleteI live on the other side of the country. I still got time for planning but I'm doubting if I'll ever go.
ReplyDeleteMust find my way to New York...some how...
ReplyDeleteIf ever there was a BroNYcon I would want to go to, it'd be the one with Pinkie Pie's VA at it.
ReplyDeleteToo bad Texas is quite a ways away from NY.
(Sees Fluttershys voice actress is attending) -yay-
ReplyDelete(remembers Im broke and live in Texas)

Hot dam, very impressive GoH, hats off to you Purple Tinker.
ReplyDeleteYou made me realistically consider a 16 hour drive (32h round trip!). But then I realized the date is during winter break and I'll be abroad.
I have never before cursed the fact that I was going on vacation.
@Purple Tinker
ReplyDeleteHave you considered holding a BronyCon in Madison, WI?
I know I'm not the first to say this, but LOL MOLESTIA!
ReplyDelete.....so far away.....so much monies.....ack.
ReplyDeleteShould I stay home and spend my money on pony things and internet, or should I shell out some money and go?
#firstworldponyrelatedproblems
YAY about all the VAs and artists, fer sure, but I'm stoked to meet Apple Cider & Chef Sandy just as much. Their podcast is my favorite background noise when I'm doing art and customizing. Sometimes when AC does one of his silly voices / impressions, or goes on a rant about something I just have to stop what I'm doing and giggle helplessly until I regain control. That's entertainment!
ReplyDelete@Eddmario
ReplyDeleteConsidering that it's more like BroNYCon (New York), probably not! But I'm another Wisconsin brony!
If not for the fact that I work weekends, I'd be throwing a lot more events in Milwaukee. :)
I am SO seriously geeking out of this event! Just getting to meet so many friends from the various pony haunts online is going to be awesome!
ReplyDeleteJanuary can't arrive soon enough!
As others have said, a modern Andrea Libman can be seen at 1:16 in the above linked video, but you can also see a picture of a younger Andrea at this page, where you can see and hear some other voice roles she's done in the past.
ReplyDeleteNO FAIR!!! I LIVE IN SAN DIEGO AND IT ALSO HAS THE BEST CONVENTIONS (example: COMIC-CON). Why not have one in SD?!?!? DX
ReplyDeleteWhat a pity that I can't get there.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait getting to the US as an exchange student. Then I could have a driving licence and travel cross the country... and visit these awesome events to meet you and those awesome people behind this incredible show.
Greetings from Finland.
*Sigh*
ReplyDeleteOh how i'd lovve to come.
Cheap rooms?
ReplyDeleteThe standard King room rate is only $89, which is frickin' UNHEARD OF IN THE MIDDLE OF MANHATTAN.
"Niggas be writing bullshit like they gotta work
ReplyDeleteNiggas is going through real shit, man, they out of work
That's why another goddamn dance track gotta hurt
That's why I'd rather spit something that got a purpose" Kanye West
I can't even find work in my hometown. What the fuck is the world coming to. People like bullshit like ponies make me believe I am the only real person alive. I hope some day god judges you bronies.
UMADBRO?
ReplyDelete@Fridgesrants *Cough *Cough
ReplyDeleteSon you've Brought Disappoint to this blog.
It would be so awesome to go.
