A couple more weekend memories....
Sep. 30th, 2003 11:43 am...that I neglected to put in the last one.
1) The premiere of "From Moose to Bruce" went over very well indeed. It was the second song of the set; the Bruce's fan club was there on the front row and joined in on the chorus. I had to use the book and sang as clearly as I could so all could distinguish the words, and lo, to my great surprise, Bill Mesino stopped mid-conversation, turned around and listened to the whole song. In fact, all three of them did - grinning and snickering the whole way. And even better, my friend Sam was there from Five Rings fencing video-taping the whole thing, so it is down for posterity! (Yes, Shannon, somehow I'll get you a copy.) It was a great success and I think, to some degree helped us keep most of TPG's audience from their set right before ours.
2) A moment of silliness that cost me my composure - even if I did finish the song! As Bruce and I headed towards parade, Nancy and Vince (both hammer dulcimer players and lovely folk) were standing by the bridge between Fairy Forest and Wharf areas. As he often does when he sees a dead spot with a large audience passing by, Bruce swung his guitar up and began a song - happened to be "P is for Paddy" which I have just gotten down to comfort level (having performed too many times pre-comfort level - which is where 'acting' comes in handy to not look like I'm screwing it up as badly as I know I am!) Well, I'm tapping on the tamborine which fits neatly over the hilt of my dagger - on the beat as it's a quick, rhythmic song with a fun harmony that I love.
Well all of a sudden, there is additional, off-the-beat and alternate-rhythm tapping on self-same tamborine! I glance over my shoulder to see an evil grin on Vince's face - well, damned if I was gonna let him throw me off! But then, of course, I got tickled. So here I am rattling off the harmonies and lyrics of this new-and-tricky song and giggling all the while. This, of course, is highly amusing to the people walking by - they all get it in a heartbeat! We finish the song to uproarious applause and I finally get to indulge the snorts and giggles which have been interiorally-exploding the whole time! Fun silliness I'm gonna flash on when we do that song - and I can just imagine what whistle is gonna sound like added in on those rhythms - yummy!
