Loscon XXVI Filking Schedule 


Come enjoy some fannish music. If the location isn't listed, it's in the designated filk room, down the same hall you head down when going to the Con Suite. Look for the "Guitar Note" on the door.

Friday, November 26

12:00 PM - Festival Room

Introduction to Filk: Leslie Fish, Kathy Mar, Mary Creasey, Frank Gasperik


Filk is the kind of folksongs that fannish folk sing. What's that really mean? Come learn from longtime filkers.


After The Ice Cream Social

All night singing. Those parties won't outlast us!


Saturday, November 27

11:00 AM

Workshop: Fake It, You'll Have Fun - led by Kathy Mar.


Perfection is not required, here are some great tricks to have up your sleeve in order to "make do."

Sunday, November 28

11:00 AM

Banned From Argo Memorial Filksing - led by Heather Stern


This is one of those love/hate relationships for filkers. It's a great song, the first forty dozen times you hear it. There's dozens of variants, songs about them, and discussions of what scans to them. Open book fun. (Other oldies but long-ies may be sung too.)


2:00 PM

There's Only One Way To Go From Here... Kathy Mar, Steve Savitsky, Mary Creasey, Frank Gasperik


We sing ballads of the plans to rise to space; our future is out there. What songs will we keep when this world ends and we go to others?


4:00 PM Onward

We're going to sing until the world ends. Or our voices end and the sodas run out, at least. Come join the traditional "Dead Cat Filksing" and we'll feel fine!


Your humble webmistress thanks Heather Stern for provding this schedule....
