Went to the dealer room and bought Karen Linsley's Road to Roswell and Juliane Honisch & Katy Droge's Witch Way to Reality. Talked once more to Glenn about
Caught the tail end of the harmony workshop. OMG - gorgeous stuff =) Figured out that the director, Ed Stauff (who I've seen before, but I didn't recognize), was the same guy whose music I had enjoyed the night before.
Children's Concert!!! Urban Tapestry with
Penguin Idol - people sang their entries for the Penguin song writing contest. I think the words that you had to use included arrythmia, cacaphony and penguin. It's been several days and my mind is gone. LOL
Choral Presentation - the results of the harmony workshop. T'was a Deryni song written by Ed Stauff. Wow!
Filk Hall of Fame Concert: Songs performed by or for the new inducted -
I didn't win Raphael. *sniff* Sibyl did. *sniff*
Co-concom Peggi had been chatting off and on to Alex about quilting. So when the time came to pull the raffle ticket for the nMC quilt, she had Alex come pull the number. She read off the number and there was no reaction from the audience.
Then she jokingly said "Oh, I'd better check my tickets". She pulls out her tickets and then just looks at them in shock and starts laughing "OMG". Guess who won? *g* For the rest of the con, she kept coming up to Alex and thanking him *g*
Con officially closed with the group singing of Sam's Song. Need to find the lyrics or mp3.
Had dinner at the Friendly Greek place. Spanokopita, Greek Salad and Gyros with rice & potatoes (no pita bread - just lots of meat). Alex was happy with his baklava.
Back for the Dead Penguin Filk. For a while, the circle consisted of me, Alex and Blind Lemming Chiffon. I did get a bunch of my questions answered on the different instruments BLC plays, but he ended up doing 99.9% of the singing =)
Sometimes, it gets frustrating because I don't know that many "popular songs", so when there are these giant sing alongs, I don't know them.
Some blurred highlights from the DPF - I can't remember most of the titles of the songs *sigh*

At some point, Alex & I joined Tanya & Joey up on the mezzanine level because the downstairs was packed. I also did some of my homework and Alex continued to quilt.
I was able to get a copy of Mich Sampson's CD. Score!!! *g*
Joey came and got me and said that
Octavia Butler song that she really wanted Joey to hear. It was very cool!
I made it until 3-3:30?
