DragonCon is over. Wow, what a great weekend! This was probably the most-relaxed DragonCon I've done. We had some incredible shows, and I had more fun than ever. Now we're taking our annual repose outside of Atlanta. I slept twelve hours last night. I'm feeling nicely recovered to catchup on work. I'll post more DragonCon thoughts in a wee bit. But for now, the weeklies.

This Week:

— Quote of the Week: “I hope to always have more taste than money.” Jamie Haeuser.

— Stop. Breathe. Listen to “Stardust Serenade”. Relax a moment.

— CD of the Week: Real Men Wear Kilts by Brobdingnagian Bards. Our new CD was released this weekend at DragonCon. Aside from a typographical error and not remembering who took the photo (Thanks to Jen Clower-Brown who did take that picture), it seems a great success so far. You can pre-order your copy now. They won't be available on CD Baby for another month, but I'll have your copy in the mail when I get off tour in a couple weeks.

— DragonCon Twittered. I sent a lot of Twitters while at DragonCon. That was good because I had virtually no internet access for the weekend. But I had plenty to do nonetheless.

— I'm thankful to hear that Gustav lightened up before hitting New Orleans. Most of my friends seem to be okay after the storm.

— Irish & Celtic Music Podcast show #55 made it out right before I left for Atlanta. Already getting a ton of great feedback. I can't believe how many people came up to me at DragonCon and told me how much they love the podcast. I think I might talk to the Podcast Track about doing a live show next year.

— Mur Lafferty's book Playing for Keeps climbed to #13 on the Amazon book charts. How amazing is that for an indie author!!!!!

— Think I'll catch up on some Netflix movies online while I'm relaxing. I think I can watch most of Dead Like Me there. W00t!

— Cats for Obama. My cats are voting for him too. 🙂

— The winners of the 2007 Renaissance Festival Hall of Fame are now live. Still hoping to have a website dedicated to them, but hasn't happened yet. Also should have the 2008 Renaissance Festival Award nominations going live very, very soon.

— Upcoming Shows. This Friday, we're in South Carolina performing at an Irish pub. Saturday, we return to Apex, North Carolina for a house concert. Contact the venues for more details.

— Check me out on Myspace, SoundClick, Demand a Show on Eventful, Wikipedia, Twitter, Facebook, Livejournal, Sonicbids, and DeviantArt. And if you'd like a CD…

— Do you have a quote, movie, album, tip or suggestion that you'd like to share in my Weeklies? If so, post a comment with your suggestion.
