mdlbearI had a great time at Consonance this year. As Toastmaster I had a perfect excuse not to miss any of the concerts, which were uniformly excellent. I also got the first concert slot, 7:30pm Friday, which meant that the room started out mostly empty and ended up mostly full, but it beats being scheduled opposite the Masquerade at a big con. The concert went pretty well; the usual number of flubs, but the audience didn't seem to notice.
I need to mention that (as I often do) I stupidly starting putting pages back into my notebook before writing down the list, so the order here shouldn't be trusted.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
johno's DVD of the performance.
As usual, I did the set list by hand at the last minute, shuffling paper Thursday night and Friday morning. I definitely have to write a set-list-management program. (And/or print barcodes on my songbook pages.)
I had brought my Linux-based recording set-up, but (wisely, I suspect) decided that I didn't need the extra hassle of testing and tending it, especially since it would have been an untested configuration. Not having an easily-portable monitor, the plan was to use a laptop as an X-terminal. It would almost certainly have worked, but I didn't need the extra mental load.
I crashed out of the filk circle at about 2am.
