Eric's House Of Ego

Toyboat has been nominated for a Best Performer Pegasus award. The process being what it is, we have know about it for a week or so. It's been quite a ride.

Thank you everyone who voted, and not just for us. Filk is about community, and it feels so good to have that we are part of that community affirmed in such a marvelous way.

Looking at the nominees, there are a couple of categories that are a simple choice for me (I mean really, Gabriel Gray's Song ... damn). And others where I there are really hard choices.

Ok, a fanboy moment. Remember folks it's been 3 years that I have been ranting about the wonderfulness that is SJ Tucker. FINALLY you're all catching up. That said, she is also up for Best Performer ... we're doomed, and it couldn't make me happier.

If you love filk, go listen to the samples and vote. There is a lot of great stuff to listen to.

I forget sometimes.

Congratulations to all the Pegasus Award winners.

Best Filk Song: The Wreck of the Crash of the Easthill Mining Disaster by Brooke Lunderville
Best Classic Filk Song: Still Catch the Tide by Talis Kimberley
Best Performer: Heather Dale / Ben Deschamps
Best Writer/Composer: Vixy & Tony
A Little Bit Country: Stray Dog Man by Bill Sutton
A Little Bit Rock and Roll: Six-String Love by Vixy & Tony (Vixy is very cute when she wins an award)

It was all well deserved. A couple of the categories were an easy vote for me, a couple of them really really weren't. I won't tell you how many winners I voted for, cause I just won't.
