We have a myspace page thanks to Teresa (vocals and bass) and now a facebook page thanks to Brian, our drummer. I think I bought my copy back when I taught piano at Andy's Music in Mobile, Alabama.Īnd right before Christmas, our jazz band, Play It With Moxie rehearsed at my house. Among other numbers, I performed several Vince Guaraldi arrangements I had from A Charlie Brown Christmas. Again the food was excellent! I mention this because you can actually reserve the Donnell House for various events and they will give you a list of caterers, photographers (and musicians - hint hint!) I was in the foyer with the immense Christmas tree this time. I have really enjoyed getting to meet other teachers in different disciplines through Delta Kappa Gamma.Īlso, on December 13th I played again at the Donnell House - this time for their Boston Tea Party.
See I fed others this time!), and talked about what it means to be a teacher, potential budget cuts in education, and Christmas. We all brought food (I brought my foccacia bread. DECEMBER 2008ĭecember 9th I played for the December meeting of our local Delta Kappa Gamma chapter. You can check out some of the pictures from the banquet at GAFilk on my flickr page. This year at GAFilk's Saturday night banquet, Play It With Moxie played several numbers by Squirrel Nut Zippers, "Crosstime Bus" by Bill Roper, an assortment of jazz standards, and many other fun things including, yes, the Cantina Band song from Star Wars! Check out our new FACEBOOK Page and become a fan! I got to play my clarinet, "Silver" on a couple of things which was a whole lot of fun. Emma gave us a great concert on Saturday and was a lot of fun to play along with during the late night filk circles! She is mentioned here in surrdave's livejournal in more detail. But (SQUEE!), I finally got to meet Emma Bull in person! I loved reading her novel War For the Oaks, and I'll have to check out Bone Dance. Will Shetterly and Emma Bull were invited as Super Secret Guests, but Will was not able to make it.
Speaking of the GAFilk Songbook, I am editor and primary music transcriptionist, and I am already taking submissions for the 2010 GAFilk Songbook. I had a lot of fun checking out his parodies in the GAFilk 2009 Songbook.
And Larry Kirby was our toastmaster and a very funny man. Both of them are extraordinary musicians and wonderful people. This GAFilk featured Barry and Sally Childs-Helton as Guests of Honor. Filk allowed me to try my wings as a composer, performer, and writer. And how do I do GAFilk justice? It was my first ever filk convention, and therefore the venue I met several of my best friends and found family. I always have to pause and take stock before writing up a January report because January is all about GAFilk.

Feel free to contact me via MYSPACE or FACEBOOK about COURTING MY MUSE if you'd like! And if I am performing at a general science fiction convention I get copies of my CD to one of the dealers there or sell it myself. Several filk dealers sell COURTING MY MUSE at the conventions they attend.
If you live near the Athens, AL area you can purchase it at Pablos on Market in downtown Athens, AL. I am still selling COURTING MY MUSE through as well as Amazon. You may find me there as Mary Carolyn Phillips Crowell. I have joined FACEBOOK, because apparently I did not have enough online pages and communities to keep up with.
