Meet Night of the Living Dead's JUDITH RIDLEY!!!!

You know the crazy thing is when your trying to entertain the public it’s a total crap shoot. I keep saying it is like throwing a party, you never relax till the first 10 guests arrive. (wonder if it has any thing to do with the shit load of vodka by then??) There have been hundreds of people tell me how great it will be to be there in the park, but how many will show up? Between this year and last year I figured out that about 30% of all the people that say will come actually do. And there’s nothing wrong with that just makes planning harder. We had like 275 last year so I’m counting on 800 this year and then I think of 800 people doing anything and I freak out. That’s a lot of opinions and hard to please all. So I keep falling back on the fact that the real fans want time with guests and with like minded Night of the Living Dead fans. What do you do when you invite loads of people over for a picnic at EDCO Park? Make it a Pig Roast! Yes that’s right you heard it here a Pig Roast on Friday afternoon around 5:30. Trust these Evans City people, they know how to do a Pig. Too bad the corn will be over by then. Evans City Sweet Corn is hands down the best thing you have ever eaten. The event is really coming along nicely. I will have several more things to announce this week. I say all this knowing that between this site and others we have gotten well over 5000 hits in the last few weeks. the word is getting out but never forget to pass the word on we need all the help we can get. Really hate that George got "Stay Scared" it's a really good one.

Looking Foward to all the Events leading up to Gary's 'Livingdeadfest' was lucky enough to book 10 days in nearby Zelienople back in April. And now theres more events popping up in nearby Evans City just in time!..think the 'Farmer Market Festival' event is right around that time of year too. this NOTLD event has to be one of the best of its kind since the films release. a must for Living Dead Heads GS...still like to volunteer in anyway i can to help LDF, which includes being there a week before the show. like to be part of your team (Ghoul tour guide at ECC?? in charactor lol)
