Exxxotica was a madhouse this past weekend. Must be a bunch of pent up energy. Mask wearing and social distancing were almost virtually nil, and I doubt the attendees were all vaccinated. If they want to die or kill the ones they love, then go on right ahead. Exxxotica provided wristbands for those who could prove their vaccination, but the talent did not discriminate against greeting those that didn't have wristbands. Even though I wore a mask when I could, I realised it was impossible to have a conversation with the performers without their being able to also read lips due to the noise.

Damn, these are some great shots. Like every single one of them. Almost makes me wonder why I bothered taking any pictures with my phone (oh, right, to get pics of me with the ladies).

For my money, I was very impressed with Nicole Auclair: she seems like a total sweetheart. And Honey Hayes looks way better through your camera lens than any of the scenes I've seen her in.

Before arriving, I heard that Exxxotica was providing wristbands with proof of vaccination, but they sure didn't make it apparent where to get them. I've had my shots, though, so I didn't sweat it too much after seeing basically zero people masked up.

The vaccination wristband booth were in the front alongside the media, exhibitor, and will call booths on the opposite side of the box office.

I keep forgetting Flickr censors some of the photos without a login so here they are:

I was there, and I literally didn't see the area for the vaccination wristbands until I was on my way out. I got one just for the heck of it, but yeah, it didn't seem like it was a big deal, and like 90% of the people there were unmasked (I wore my mask the whole time, even though I am vaccinated).
