The February Milwaukee house filk has been rescheduled and is now on my birthday, the 19th. I get a filk on my birthday!
Our last Milwaukee filk, last weekend, was fun. We sort of had a theme running though the night of ‘songs we haven’t practiced recently,’ which worked surprisingly well. I used this opportunity to play Kevin Wald’s Banned From Aleph, which I’ve been waiting for an excuse to try to sing. Also, after Jason played yet another everyone-dies-song, I realized that I know at least one song with a death in it, even it it’s not really an ose song, Joel Polowin’s parody of The Lady, The Laddie. I am, as
tigertoy is learning, most recently at the New Year party, always ready to follow “The Lady” with...something. The Laddie, The Goslings, or, worse, my own Wreck Of the Lady Fitzgerald.
The New Year’s Eve party was fun, too. We had a few people who were not familiar with filk listening in, and the goofy songs went over very well. I had a chance to try Dr. Jane’s “Battle with the Elements,” a song that I really ought to sing since I am a chemist.
