So ...

... part of the schedule for Archon is up.

Here is thursday night. So much for getting to bed early that first night (like I expected to anyway)

10:00pm GC - Mississippian FAN/FILK/GOH/"Pink Tennies and All" (Filk GoH): Eric Coleman
11:00pm GC - Mississippian FILK/Filk Mayhem Concert: Eric Coleman, Tom Smith

I do have a story to tell that I think Tom will enjoy a lot. I'll tell the rest of you the next day (don't want to spoil the surprise)

Here is friday

5:00pm GC - LaSalle FAN/FILK/GOH/Fannish Drinking Songs & Other Silly Stuff: Tom Smith, Eric Coleman

I can manage the silly stuff, but I don't know any fannish drinking songs. Hmmm ... wait ... there is a cover tune I have been working on this week. Never mind. I can manage one.

307 Ale is the only one I'm aware of, but since that's one of Tom's, I think you're covered.

I wonder if anyone's ever used the HHGTG line as inspiration -- "It's like being drunk." "That's not so bad." "Tell that to a glass of water." Or for that matter, anything involving a slice of lemon wrapped around a gold brick.

I know that I have heard a dozen or so in filk circles over the years.

That reminds me ... I need to go get the HHGTTG DVD

"I'm Only Here for the Beer" by Bill Sutton (bedlamhouse) comes to mind.

[ericcoleman]

I am shocked that Bill would do a drinking song ... shocked

There's many songs you'll sing, me lad...

bah, prolly already been used. You'll think of something. Just get drunk enough ;)

Wait, they're assuming drinking=alcohol. What about an Ode to Caffeine? Coffee, or soda pop? Mountain Dew? Red Bull? Red Bull and vodka... the list goes on...

Wish I could go. My wife is busy that weekend and I have to stay home and watch my daughter.

Hey Eric, I got myself booked at Archon for a show on Sunday at 1:00 pm in LaSalle. Don't know if I'll be there on Friday, but I'd be happy to ablige with "The Ballad Of Optimus Prime"! :) You GoH, boy!
