Set list for ConChord

Here's the set list for my concert yesterday at ConChord:

Desolation --- Oh, No!
Vampire Mega-Byte
Stuck Here...
Silk and Steel
Cicero in the Twenty First Century
Guilty Pleasures
The World Inside the Crystal
Ship of Stone
Close Your Eyes

cflute assisted with some gorgeous vocals on "Silk and Steel", and flute on "Cicero", "World Inside the Crystal", and "Ship of Stone". Wonder if she'll be at Loscon...

Home again, home again

ConChord was way too short -- we left about 1:30pm, forsaking three more hours of programming plus the dead dog. *sigh*

When we were somewhere around Gilroy, about 1/2 hour from home (and about the time I was starting to wonder where we might go for dinner), our delightful super_star_girl called to say that she had dinner ready for us! Got home to find salad and red wine on the table, bean buritos and rice in the kitchen. "Impressed" is a considerable understatement.

More on the con tomorrow, probably.

Hurricane warning

If you live on the Louisiana coast, and especially in the part of New Orleans that is below sea level, read this advisory. Then shut down your computer, gather up whatever you value most, and get the hell out!.

Please note the first paragraph (emphasis mine)

A HURRICANE WARNING IS IN EFFECT FOR THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF COAST FROM MORGAN CITY LOUISIANA EASTWARD TO THE ALABAMA/FLORIDA BORDER...INCLUDING THE CITY OF NEW ORLEANS AND LAKE PONTCHARTRAIN. PREPARATIONS TO PROTECT LIFE AND PROPERTY SHOULD BE RUSHED TO COMPLETION.

edit I see that evacutation has already been ordered, so if you're still reading this you either aren't in the affected area, or haven't been paying attention. In the latter case, good luck. You'll need it.
