Dee Kelly responds to Shatner singing rocketman

It just goes to remind me how much we lost when De Forest Kelly left this world. :(
 
It's from Starcon Denver '91, when De was a guest. Part of the festivities on Saturday night is a play parody, originally a parody of whatever big SF movie or event took place since the last con. Eventually, they abandoned the specific play format and started going with a SNL sketch show format, and this is from one of the early ones ("...with musical guest, William Shatner!"). And yeah, the crowd, around a couple thousand, loved it.
 
I would have loved to see it in person. I wish I could have met DeForest. I remember there was a convention around here back in 1994 or 95, and I believe DeForest was a guest. I was too young to go myself, and no one wanted to take me. :(

J, at least you live near where conventions are!

I've NEVER been in position to go see a Trek convention!
