* -- with cflute on, um, C flute.

I don't often do "Desolation Row" in concert, but it seemed to go well (though a couple of people in the audience were looking a little dazed). Since I had the last concert slot of the con, I threw "The Owl and the Pussycat" back into the mix, and my heckling section (chaoswolf) asked for "Filksong Lullabye", which I hadn't done in years.

My throat was incredibly dry, but I managed to keep going with plenty of help from a cup of tea before, and my water bottle between songs. Far fewer flubs than usual; it's a pity it wasn't recorded (the guy with the video camera had moved to the open filking to follow some people he was more interested in recording). Next time I'll bring my own recording gear.
