ConGlom

[filkertom]

Off to ConGlomeration in Louisville, KY. Fun, friends, Skyline Chili and Smokey Bones, shsilver and sylverwolfe and nezmaster and isolde_deely and darkwolf69 and sydb42 and scott644 and the Gather and my darling dubheach and her clan and who knows who all else.

My schedule is:

• Friday 7:00 pm -- Opening Ceremonies (Julia Belle Ballroom)
• Friday 9:00 pm -- Meet Tom Smith (Iroquois) -- I think
  they're envisioning some grand Inside The Filker's Studio,
  but it's likely just gonna be me singing and leading into
  the Open Filk at 10:00
• Saturday 1:00 pm -- Concert (Julia Belle Ballroom)
• Saturday 10:00 pm -- Open Filk (Iroquois)

Three things of interest: I may try to get to the Bill Levy Roast Friday at 6:00; I may do a song or two during the Masquerade Halftime Burlesque; and there is a "Jam Session" listed both Friday and Saturday nights in the Heartland room. I like the ConGlom people, but I gotta tell ya: you're not gonna have a particularly big filk, let alone a second room with a jam session, unless you know something I don't know.

Anyway. Final prep to be done this morning, and then CONNNNNNN!

YOU GUYS!!! You rock and more than rock. Are you running a party this year? (The picture in question is the fantastic Fenton and the Gather (http://www.tomsmithonline.com/fanstuff/art-fentondragons.htm) pic by Wertle.)

Sad to say no party this year. I was considering it, but money and health issues (the two do seem to go hand in hand, wot?) took away the option. Which is sad because I really wanna have another FentonFest!

We are doing a Gather at the Con again though, and you can check out our "itinerary" on my LJ if ya wanna hang. It's when we're getting together for meals basically. We'll probably have a cheering section for ya at your concert tho! ^_^

Do give my best to Bill Levy. Ask him if he's forgotten that time in Paris on the Left Bank when the moonlight shone on the water and the scent of the flowers was like perfume in our nostrils. See what he says.

I think Bill has forgotten it.

God knows I have!

I wish I could go but I couldn't take the day off from work. :( Ahwell.

OK, so I'm late to the party for the pre-con conversation, but I wanted to say thanks for a great show and filks. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!

I'm so sorry I missed you. Nez had to work for Chessex (Dice!) and Foxwit had off. So I ended up staying here and working Wed and Thurs, picked up at 1am Turs/Fri (depending on your time scale) and rode to Indy. I was sick "cough" on Friday and had sat and sun off.

I never wanted to be in 2 places simultaneously at once, but this was a time I wish I could have...sigh. I hope you had fun though :)
