I want to thank everyone who came out to the Space Madness event at Elysium. It turned out surprisingly well considering the idea came together a little over a week ago. There were a lot of folks dressed in costume from a Star Trek ensign to Poison Ivy. Mmm…
It was way cool fun. And for playing solo, it was ideal circumstances, meaning the fog machine was pretty heavy for most of my set so I couldn't see the audience. hehe. Normally, I like seeing the audience, but when I'm playing solo and even playing a new song, I think I like not seeing anyone. LOL. So yeah, it went well. Hopefully, the recording of it came out okay as well.
Nevertheless, the audience was really enthusiastic, and I had a great time, both playing music and listening to DJ Boba Fett spin geeky tunes.
Oh! And I did debut my new song, “Don't Go Drinking With Hobbits”. Despite problems remembering lyrics, it was fairly well received. WOOT!
Here's the set list:
- The Mining Ship the Red Dwarf
- Jedi Drinking Song Prequel
- A Rabbit for Halloween
- The Psychopathic Chronic, Schizophrenic Gollum Blues
- Don't Go Drinking with Hobbits
- She Said Her Name Was Saffron
- Hero of Canton
- Angel's Lament
- Harry Potter and the Rising of the Moon
- Middle Earth Bragging Song
- Jedi Drinking Song
So when will we be back at Elysium? I don't know yet. John was looking for some sort of Celtic holiday to host an event with Celtic groups. I threw out the Bedlam Bards as a group that I thought would go over well there with us. But a date? Boh? Maybe Twelfth Night? I wonder how that'd go?
Anyway, off to a late start to Texas Ren Fest tomorrow.
