Storytelling and Ohio Valley Filk Festival
I was sorry to miss the Comfort Zone Bardic event, but had a great time last weekend.
Storytelling went very well. I told nine ghost stories, ranging from an ancient Irish tale (the "Adventure of Nera") to a ghostly poem. I'll be telling one of the stories ("The Shoemaker from Constantinople") Friday at Gwyntarian Dance Night and Halloween Revel. I was paid by the bookstore owner and made decent money in tips. The turnout was perfect - the room was full without being crowded. I actually frightened several people with my stories. One woman came up afterwords and wanted to know my performance schedule, which was really flattering, but I demonstrated my non-professional background by not having a webpage or Myspace with that information. I did tell her that I would most likely be performing at the OSU Medieval Faire in May. Afterwards, the bookstore owner asked me to come back in the spring.
OVFF was fun, if not period. ;-) (Although Heather Dale was one of the performers up for a Pegasus this year...) My favorite song was "Gabriel Gray's Song," about Sylar from Heroes. And I got to recite "Castle in the Clouds" from Les Miserables as a rap.
If any of you get a chance to go to OVFF next year, I highly recommend it.
Current Mood:  happy
Current Music: "Castle in the Clouds"
