Most of the studio's are in Burbank, so that's likely where it'll be held. Unless they decide to try and claim a hangar at El Toro, but then that's Irvine/eltoro/lake forest area.

Either way, I signed up hopefully I'll get a spot.

OMG if someone did that I would love them forever and it would be major rep and kudos from me!

If I lived even remotely nearby I would totally go stalker fan and get a telescope to watch the filming from afar (because I'm too young to get in) or I would have to get like the best fake ID ever made.

If I had even the slightest bit of faith in this show, I'd be tempted to drive down and pick up Viper's ass on the way down. But I don't Best of luck to those in the waiting list, hope it's enjoyable and the groundwork of a good show.
