I didn't post about it on Sunday like I should have, but the H.P Lovecraft Film Festival Kickstarter reached its goal of $8,000 on Sunday morning with four days to spare!

Yay! I'm so very happy! :D Thank you to everyone who contributed! You are wonderful, wonderful people.

This one is to the tune of an old Scottish traditional song called "Eppie Morrie". In case you don't know it, here's a link to Karan Casey's version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILU0RYhmCWI (Although the version I'm familiar with is the one by Sileas (pron. shi-LAHS) on ( Read more... )

I'm working on my future appearances in various places up and down the West Coast. In addition to the monthly Lestat's show I do with Allison Lonsdale (see details below), I'm also lining up performances at various conventions: Conjecture/ConChord in San Diego in October, LosCon in Los Angeles in November, possibly GeekFest III in Seattle in ( Read more... )

The event schedule has just been published, and it appears that I'm . . . somewhat underutilized. Might need to talk to jameshay about that. Nevertheless, the events I will be part of are as follows:

I need to book a specific flight on a specific airline. I have all the "codes" for it, I just need to get it actually booked and pay for it.

Since deciding to strengthen my focus on geeky music, I've been looking into doing more science fiction and fantasy convention performances. As some of you may know, I attended MisCon in 2009 and was their music GoH in 2010.

I was at a convention for the television show House M.D.. Hugh Laurie was there, and we spoke. I managed to convince him to do a re-enactment of one of the episodes of Blackadder the Third, with him reprising the role of Prince-Regent George "Thick as a Whale Omelet" Hanover and me as his butler, Edmund Blackadder ( Read more... )
