| Baycon was fantastic! Photos and video from the convention are here. Vixy and I were hoping to arrive in time for Callie's concert, and we would have if it weren't for... get this... a broken windshield wiper on the airplane. I kid you not. We saw them working on it at the gate. Our concert went quite well, with the assistance of the Bohnhoffs and Callie, followed by Vixy and Seanan assisting the Bohnhoffs in their concert. Boy, they sounded great. Video can be found in the gallery. Puzzlebox and Brocelïande were fantastic, too, as always. The best part about the weekend was on Friday night, when Kanef blindsided Vixy with his brilliant cross-parody of her song The Girl That's Never Been. He took the story of the old tune "Have Some Madeira, My Dear", and crammed it into the melody of "Girl", with some of the most clever wordplay and cross-referencing I've seen him do so far. One particularly clever bit was so layered that it didn't hit me until I was replaying the song in my head later that weekend. A tour de force. Some people in pop music have said, "you know you've made it when Weird Al parodies you." Well, in Filk, the same applies to getting Kaneffed. And for my money, Bob's a much better parodist than Al, so as far as I'm concerned, it's even better. Edit: Con reports by Harold, Vixy Friday and Vixy Saturday/Sunday are online. Next on the calendar, I see we've got Pondfilk in June. And oh yeah, the Bohnhoffs will be there, too, so we'll get to see them again! I'd love to make it to Concertino, but probably won't be able to, unfortunately. Those who are going, have a great time, and take lots of pictures! |
