I'd actually recommend flying into Burbank if you can. It's closer to West Hollywood and easier to get in and out of than LAX. However, LAX is not that much farther and there are a lot more flights than to Burbank so many will need to go that route. I'm really getting excited to see everyone!

I would so like to be there to meet Thore and Jo and other great fans alike but I cant make it. Hopefully when and if they go to another GOOL event I'll be first in line for the tickets I hope you have a great time and hopefully I will be there aswell for the next one.

Due to the sudden unavailability and filming requirements of some of the actors, it is with great sadness that we are forced to announce that GOOL 2011 is canceled. Because of these conflicts, we simply know of no other solution at this time.
We know the actors and their fan communities would like to see another event happen, as awesome as 2010 was, take place. We had some wonderful things planed for 2011 and had secured some great venues, publications, and suppliers -- but without the celebrities we feel this is the right decision.
It is our sincere hope that we will find an alternative time to bring all of us together again. We will continue to coordinate with the celebrities. It is our hope that we may transition this event to one that is bi-annual.
At this time, we also wish to thank everyone who continued to show their support for this event. Those who supplied youtube videos, artwork, website coding (and hosting), location scouting, venue space, and other in-kind donations. Your generosity does not go unnoticed.
Please feel free to email us at GOOLEvent@gmail.com with any comments or questions regarding this announcement.

Sorry about the cancellation, guys, I'm sure it would have been a wonderful event! In a selfish note, I'm personally a little relieved, L.A. and April were impossible for me to attend, and I was bummed that I was gonna miss out on another GOOL! But perhaps on the next one I'll be able to join, so this is like a second chance to me You said there were filming schedules conflicting? Perhaps Jo and Thore are finally gonna film that movie they had signed in for? Or did they get a new big storyline? Perhaps this is a blessing in disguise or something

@chrolli - They were announced to have supporting/minor roles in a movie called "Last Train to Aachen" (or something like that). mitsaso - Here's hoping! @everyone Else - Start saving NOW for GOOL 2012! If you had the money set aside, put it in the bank!

isn't there still a chance we'll get a GOOL 2011 later in the year?

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!
I was so looking forward to getting out of the cold weather for a few days. But I guess it's better to cancel it than have it turn out badly. Was it "our" guys who had to cancel, or some of the others?
BTW, the movie is/was "Transfer at Aachen".

This type of event is actually very tough to organize. Actors, especially TV actors, have very tight schedules and it's hard to get them all in one place at the same time, especially from across the globe. It's actually a miracle that the 2010 event happened with only 1 cancellation. I'm not betting we'll get something this year but who knows? There's still a big demand, so hopefully it will happen eventually.
