Arts Freaks of the Final Frontier
As word spreads that EMP will host the Star Trek 40th Anniversary “Celebration and Conference” this September, a number of fascinating details are coming to light. Bargain-minded Trekkies will want to snap up the $95 tickets, while true obsessives will have to shell out $995 for the V.I.P. treatment which includes reserved seats (within the first three rows), entry to the Friday Night Gala Celebration on top of the Space Needle (where the Klingon Band will be performing), and, um, a collectible badge and show program. Sorry kids, the $5,000 and $10,000 tickets apparently sold out months ago, according to EMP publicist Christian Quilicci. What, pray tell, would a $10,000 ticket entitle one to? A circle jerk with William Shatner, perhaps? Be afraid Cienna, be very afraid.
Gee, for $10K maybe Paul will let you sit in "the captain's chair".
And no, that's NOT a euphemism...
