Irish Drinking Songs, Bedlam Bards
Well, Excalibur is going great despite getting sick on Sunday. Some even said our shows went well despite the fact that I was sooo out of it. It's also nice to see that our audiences are growing. Attendance overall at the faire has been relatively dismal, but that hasn't hindered our performances. I think it's helped immensely that we've been creating set lists at long last. Makes our shows flow better and also keeps the shows from falling into a same-ol' repetoire of songs. Actually playing a bunch of different songs that we don't always get to play.
I also talked to Cedric of the Bedlam Bards about my Irish Drinking Songs for Cat Lovers album. I know he's a fantastic filker. And he already has one idea he's started working on. I'd love to get a mix of music on this project.
Though admittedly, the one slightly disturbing turn of events is when someone requested Andrew sing "Nobody's Muggy Now" which is a very sick and depressing song that gets off on cat mutilation. I've refused to perform it, but Andrew does it now and then when he does some solo stuff.
It raised an intriguing question though if we started incorporating cat songs into our set whether he'd want to that (or other) cat hater song as well... Definitely not something I'm willing to put up with, so I reckon, this might just turn into a Marc solo project, at least when it comes to live performances... cuz I really despise "Nobody's Muggy Now".
I-Con rapidly approaches. I'm hoping and praying I'll be healthy when it arrives this weekend. Got lots o'packing and preparation to do tonight. Gather up CDs, make sure my instruments are in tip-top shape, etc.
