PRIVATE SIGNING! PATY\u2019S! AND PALADIN! \u2013<\/span> Over the weekend I did a private signing for a company of about 20 \u201cBleach\u201d-related items. I let them dry very well, then packaged them up and mailed them off at the post office. Then I went to my box to pick up some packages, and treated myself to lunch at Paty\u2019s on the patio. It was a very warm day, so I was all by myself out there. But dining like that on a warm summery day is one of my favorite things to do. I went to CVS to get some supplies for my upcoming road trip, got a few grocery items at the store, and then went home to do some work. I typed out Wally\u2019s Week, rested a bit, recorded the auditions for the day, and then went outside to take my nightly WOG (walk\/jog). When I finished I got an ice cold iced tea and enjoyed that and a nice cigar in my anti-gravity chair as I sat under a gorgeous summer night sky. When I came back inside I made a salad and watched a few episodes of \u201cHave Gun \u2013 Will Travel\u201d from the season 2 DVD set.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Tuesday the 25th \u2013 DOUBLE SAD DAY! \u2013<\/span> On my Day Planner I had the word \u201cdolly\u201d written down on this day. My intent was to go to the hardware store and buy a small dolly that I could use this coming weekend to haul an especially bulky item into the San Jose Convention Center to have it signed. As I prepared to make my way over to the hardware store I got a text from my pal Sara Raftery that Dolly Parton had passed away. Very sad. Dolly was really something. I thought it odd that the word \u201cdolly\u201d had been written on my Day Planner on that particular day. As if it wasn\u2019t bad enough that I was feeling sad about Dolly\u2019s passing, I drove by the location of the Studiopolis Annex, a studio where we had recorded many episodes of \u201cSonic Boom,\u201d \u201cBleach,\u201d \u201cAvengers: Earth&#8217;s Mightiest Heroes,\u201d and many other cartoons and video games. The studio (as well as every other building in a 3 block stretch) had been razed to the ground. Our beloved Studiopolis Annex was now just rubble. I had heard that the landlord who owned that property had canceled all of the leases on that property in order to make way for a large residential complex. But still it hurt to see the building that held so many great personal memories for me nothing but debris. Oh well\u2026progress I guess. I got to the hardware store and found a perfect dolly, picked up some paint and a few extra items, and then headed back home. It was a very hot day out, so I stayed inside most of the day. I recorded some auditions that had come in, slept for a little bit, and later I did my WOG. I spent some time after in the anti-grav chair under a beautiful almost-full moon. Gorgeous! I did some work around the house, and then drew out some plans to make the neck and ears for my new Muppet replica\u2026Guy Smiley!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Wednesday the 26th \u2013 DAVE! DEREK! AND DISNEY! \u2013<\/span> For over a decade I\u2019ve known an appearance manager named Derek Maki. He\u2019s a great guy, and he recently told me that he would be representing most of the Muppet performers for signings. I was especially elated when he said he convinced Dave Goelz to hit the circuit! Dave is the only original main cast Muppet performer (from my era, anyway) who\u2019s still performing. In fact, his characters Gonzo, Zoot, Bunsen Honeydew, etc. have never been handed off to another performer \u2013 unlike most of the other Muppet characters. I\u2019ve been wanting to meet Mr. Goelz for about 50 years, so meeting him at the upcoming Galaxy Con in San Jose would be a real treat! Derek has a lot of fun stuff in the works with the Muppet gang and he wants to include me in the fun. We met at Paty\u2019s to chat about possible upcoming events. It\u2019s VERY exciting! After lunch I picked up a package at my box, and went home to do some work and make some phone calls. I designed and traced the patterns for Guy Smiley\u2019s ears onto some \u00bd\u201d foam rubber and cut them out, and glued them together. Then I got on the computer and rehearsed for a Disney call-back audition that I was scheduled for on Thursday. Later I took my WOG, but it was much too humid out to enjoy some relaxing time in the anti-gravity chair, so I came back inside the house and hit the hay.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Thursday the 27th \u2013 A NEW ADDITION TO THE FAMILY! \u2013<\/span> At high noon I was at Outloud Audio in Burbank for a directed call-back audition for an upcoming Disney project. It was for an existing character that I needed to voice match, and while I came fairly close to the original voice, Disney Character Voices thought it would be good to have me come in for a directed callback audition. I was more than happy to play, especially considering that the session was going to be directed by my old pal Ben Hoppe \u2013 whom I\u2019ve known for almost 20 years! After we spent about 15 minutes kibitzing and catching up, we hit the studio and started working. Because this particular character\u2019s voice is treated with a specific effect in post-production, he was getting me to do very specific things that would play well into the final effect. We spent about an hour working on it, and I honestly believe it paid off very well. So\u2026fingers crossed. But in this business\u2026you never know. When I finished I was starving, so I hit the local Taco Bell to pick up some lunch at the drive thru. Just as a random chance I said to the voice on the speaker box, \u201cAre Enchiritos gone for good?\u201d The voice simply replied, \u201cHow many would you like?\u201d WOW! I found a Taco Bell that still offered Enchiritos. I got six and hurried home to enjoy what I thought was a long lost treat. While I only ate 2 for lunch, the other 4 came in very handy over the next several hours. (They heat up pretty well in the microwave!) I did some packing for my weekend road trip to San Jose, and later a guy named Patrick came over to tour Planet Wallywood, see my Muppet collection, and show me a Fozzie Bear replica that he had bought many years ago. He was in the market to sell Fozzie and I was interested. I wanted him to come over so I could see if his Fozzie matched the scale of my other replicas. While this Fozzie was a bit smaller than the real one, he was a beautiful piece! Unfortunately his right hand wasn\u2019t made to be operational, and had been stuffed and mounted to his side. While that was a bit disappointing (it certainly wasn\u2019t Patrick\u2019s fault) I bought the replica and added him to the collection. As I had to be up early the next morning to start our road trip to San Jose, I finished packing and turned in.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Friday the 28th \u2013 \u201cDO YOU KNOW THE WAY TO SAN JOSE?\u201d \u2013<\/span> At 8am I excitedly awoke, cleaned up, and hit the road by 9am. I headed over to Ventura County to meet up with my pal Mark Fullerton, who would be driving us up the 101 freeway to San Jose for the Galaxy Con experience. I hadn\u2019t been on a road trip in a while, and I hadn\u2019t been to a convention as a fan in a long time, so this would be a double treat! And since we decided not to fly there, we could pack the car with lots of stuff to have signed! I got to Mark\u2019s by 9:45, we moved stuff from my car to his, and we hit the road round 10:30. The countryside was absolutely gorgeous. In addition to a nice drive by the seaside, we also hit farm country, some hills and mountain areas, some desert-looking landscapes, and lots of very tall trees. Extremely picturesque! Halfway between L.A. and San Jose is a town called San Luis Obispo. Don, an old Army buddy of my dad\u2019s lives there, so we arranged to take him to lunch and shoot a surprise video for my dad. Oddly enough Don also lost his wife right around the time my mom passed away. We met at the Copper Caf\u00e9 at the Madonna Inn, and it was a blast. If you\u2019ve never heard of the Madonna Inn, you should look it up. It\u2019s fantastical! Much like my pal Mark, Don was a former law enforcement officer. So I thought it was funny that I should be dining with two former \u201ccoppers\u201d at the Copper Caf\u00e9. We had a great lunch, we shot the video, Mark sent it to my dad (who was TOTALLY surprised by it) and we headed up the road further. Shortly after 5 we got into San Jose and checked into the Hyatt Place, which is just a few short steps from the convention center. Once we got settled in our rooms we walked down the main drag in search of dinner. We happened across a wonderful-looking place called Original Joe\u2019s\u2026a family-style Italian place. It\u2019s been in business for 70 years, so it HAD to be good. And it didn\u2019t disappoint. Luckily, because we were in so early, we were seated right away. We strolled through downtown San Jose and it\u2019s truly a gorgeous town. We stopped into the convention center in an attempt to redeem our QR codes and get our Saturday badges early, but no luck. So we headed back to the hotel, got into our rooms and got settled. I prepped my stuff to have signed by Dave Goelz the next day. VERY exciting!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Saturday the 29th \u2013 MEETING MY \u201cGOELZ!\u201d \u2013<\/span> At 8 Mark and I met in the lobby and enjoyed the wonderful breakfast that the Hyatt Place is traditionally known for. We walked over to the convention center and got in line to get our badges about 15 minutes before 9. At 9 sharp the doors opened and we went to registration to get our credentials. Then we went upstairs and waited in another line for the doors to the convention to open at 10. But everything opened promptly, and it was wonderful. I hadn\u2019t been to a convention in a very long time where I had the time to lounge around and shop. Normally I\u2019m in a hurry to get to my table, and sometimes I don\u2019t ever get time to shop around with the vendors. We found Dave Goelz\u2019 table and made contact with my pal Derek\u2019s assistant Anna, who would be sitting with Dave for the weekend. Derek was with another client at a convention in Florida. But Derek made Anna fully aware that I\u2019d be coming to the table with LOTS of stuff for Dave to sign. While we shopped around I found a metal Renji sword (called a \u201czanpakuto\u201d in the \u201cBleach\u201d series) and I\u2019ve always wanted one of these. I\u2019ve signed several of them in the past, but I wanted to get one for myself. Luckily, since we weren\u2019t flying, I could pick one up now! I could NEVER get one of these babies on the plane! This thing was SHARP! Mark and I also enjoyed chatting with animation legend Willie Ito, who had a table there. Willie has worked for virtually every animation studio in existence at one time or another. I saw that he had worked on The Jetsons, so I was hoping to have him sketch a drawing of George Jetson and Astro, since I had provided both of their voices for an episode of \u201cHarvey Birdman\u201d back in the 90s. In anticipation of the convention, Mr. Ito had pre-drawn a lot of different hand-drawn sketches and had them in a binder. THERE WAS A PENCIL DRAWING OF GEORGE &amp; ASTRO! SOLD! I had him sign it for me and Mark picked up a Hong Kong Phooey sketch too. It\u2019s not often you get to meet a legend like Mr. Ito! Then we decided it was time to grab the Gonzo stuff and head to Dave Goelz\u2019s table. On the way back to the hotel I was stopped by a few guys in Ghostbusters costumes who asked, \u201cAre you Wally Wingert?\u201d I said I was, and one simply replied, \u201cCool!\u201d I felt honored! We got to the hotel and grabbed the stuff. I had stuff in a rolling suitcase, and I had the Gonzo puppeteering stool that I had bought at the Henson auction last November in a box on a dolly that I pulled along. Thank God for the dolly, because carrying this box over to the convention center would have been a drag! As we stood there in Dave\u2019s line people were wondering what was in the box. Even Dave looked out and said, \u201cDid you shrink me down and put me in a box?\u201d I told him the thing I had in the box would be worth the wait. When I say I\u2019ve been waiting 50 years to meet Dave Goelz I\u2019m not exaggerating. I quickly became a Gonzo the Great fan when I started watching \u201cThe Muppet Show\u201d back in 1976. I had even built a few Gonzo replicas when I was a kid living in South Dakota, as I was fascinated by his sculpted foam rubber beak. When my turn at the table came, I introduced myself and reminded him that we had spoken via Zoom a few years ago as part of a fundraising auction for The Center For Puppetry Arts in Atlanta. He said my name sounded familiar and I also reminded him that I\u2019m friends with Matt Vogel and Eric Jacobsen, two of the current main Muppet performers. I pulled the puppeteering stool out and told him that I purchased it at the Henson auction last year, and that it was the stool he used in a scene with Gonzo for the TV series \u201cMuppets Tonight.\u201d I explained how the auction house had broken it before it was delivered to me, and the mirror (which supplied the optical illusion that the stool had four legs) had shattered\u2026and one of the legs had come off. When they restored it I requested that the mirror be replaced with a Plexiglas mirror so no breakages would occur in the future. (SIDEBAR: A puppeteering stool like this uses an old magician\u2019s trick with a cleverly placed mirror which reflects the surrounding area. The stool has only 3 legs and a seat. The mirror not only reflects the middle leg, creating the optical illusion that the stool has a fourth leg, but it also disguises the puppeteer\u2019s presence \u2013 as he\u2019s hiding behind the mirror as he operates the character. It\u2019s extremely clever. Dave was very deliberate in how he signed it, so he signed his real name on one of the front legs, but signed the seat with Gonzo\u2019s elaborate signature. Then I presented a Gonzo photo replica puppet that was sold by Master Replicas many years ago. But I had my puppet builder pal, the amazing Steve Troop, do some modifications on it to make it look more like the real Gonzo. Dave signed the breast panel of the maroon tuxedo as Gonzo, but hid his own signature under the pocket flap. FUNNY! I also had some original behind-the-scenes photos of Dave working on \u201cFraggle Rock\u201d that I had him sign, in addition to a wood plaque, a \u201cMuppet Movie\u201d original one-sheet movie poster, and the \u201cMuppet Movie\u201d soundtrack album cover. I explained to Dave that in my house\/museum, I will have the puppeteering stool on display with the Gonzo puppet sitting atop it. He said, \u201cLet\u2019s see how it\u2019ll look.\u201d He came out from behind the table and the people in the line went crazy! Cameras started snapping shots as Dave and I posed in front of the stool and the Gonzo replica. It was MAGICAL! And I really appreciate the care and concern he showed to ensure that everything was done with great intent and thought. When I turned around to leave I saw that his line had grown considerably since I had taken my place in it. Apparently people were attracted by the impromptu show that was occurring. Good! (I heard later that Dave stayed until the very end of the show and had a great time chatting with everyone! Fantastic!) Mark and I took everything back to my room (carefully) and then headed out to get lunch. When we went back to the convention for one last run-through I picked up a really nice Stormtrooper helmet from one of the vendors. I had always wanted one, and this was the one for me! It will need a few paint touch-ups, but other than that it\u2019s amazing! Again\u2026I\u2019m REALLY glad I wasn\u2019t flying! I stopped by Colleen O\u2019Shaughnessey\u2019s table to say hi. She and I have been in many cartoons together, most notable she was Wasp to my Ant-Man in \u201cAvengers: Earth\u2019s Mightiest Heroes.\u201d&nbsp;Mark and I tried to get back to Original Joe\u2019s for dinner, but on a Saturday night the wait time was about an hour. We put our name in for a reservation, but to kill time, we walked around to look at the downtown area some more. We happened across a place called \u201cJackie\u2019s Place.\u201d The menu had a delicious array of barbecue items and other southern favorites. SOLD! Mark went back to have our names removed from the Original Joe\u2019s reservation list, and luckily enough, we got the LAST TWO servings of barbecue beef brisket they had for the day! Whew! It was meant to be. It was amazing sitting outside enjoying barbecue beef, mac and cheese, potato salad, banana pudding and grape Kool-Aid! And while the weather was certainly a lot cooler than L.A.\u2019s, it was still very pleasant. We walked back to the hotel and saw all kinds of activity and nice doggies. I really love this city! LOTS going on! I got back to my room and packed everything up for an early departure the next morning. What a great day!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Sunday the 30th \u2013 MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! \u2013<\/span> Once again it was up at 8am, breakfast at 9, and hitting the road back to L.A. at 10. Don asked if we would meet him for lunch on our way back through San Luis Obispo, and we happily agreed. But on Sunday the restaurant at the Madonna Inn was a madhouse. So we met at a local Denny\u2019s. It was good to see him again and I really hope my dad and him stay in touch on a regular basis. On the way back to L.A. we encountered considerable traffic, but we still made it back to Mark\u2019s around 5. I loaded all the goods into my car and headed home. I was home and safe by 6. What a great weekend! But an old childhood friend of mine was in town visiting and we had dinner plans for Monday. And after dinner he\u2019d be coming by Planet Wallywood for a tour. So I couldn\u2019t rest much, as I had lots to do to get the house ready. I made a display base for my new Fozzie replica, and set up the signed Gonzo stool display with the newly signed Gonzo figure. I got a little bit of rest and then got back outside for a WOG. The weather had cooled down considerably since we left L.A. last Friday, and it was kinda nice. I spent some time in the anti-grav chair feeling very thankful for a perfect weekend, and then I went inside to do some more work.
