Highlights From VanCon: Supernatural’s Jensen Ackles Sings ‘Simple Man’, Plus Jared and Jensen Panels
One of the most desired Supernatural conventions was held last weekend in Vancouver.
We will be getting in depth reports about the convention throughout the week. In the mean time, we must note that the hit of the convention was Jensen singing “A Simple Man” with Louden Swain. The Internet exploded with reaction to the performance.

We are so lucky to have stars willing to do these conventions. The stars give us a glimpse into the world of Supernatural and a look at their lives. We also get to see how talented they are in fields other than acting.
I am overcome with cuteness and loveableness! Those “boys.” Adorable. These were very good panels. I’m going to watch again… (Yes, I know – No, I’m not obsessive.) Thank goodness for cameras and computers!
Loved the stories about their kids. They don’t have to share those intensely private moments with us, but I am glad for the little gems that they do let us know about. Especially sweet was the story of how Tom somehow got into a YouTube video of Sam being beaten up….”That man hurt daddy!” and Gen telling Jared to face time Tom as soon as he could to set his little mind at ease. Aw. Being 3 is tough! Suddenly the world is full of monsters.

It is a shame that most of the articles only talks about Jensen and forgot the Louden Swain band..
He was awesome. But it was not just him.
