I got to tell some of my worst jokes, and play some great songs. My highlights included: -An original that I may or may not ever play again. I set a limerick about the "Time Travellers' Ball" to music. And to make a fine meta joke about it, I set the same limerick sung a bunch of times to a *bunch* of music from a crazy mix of musical periods, genres and styles, including a couple of shoutouts to some musical iconic bits and cliches, like you do... because: time travel. Ok, I thought it was hilarious. -Getting to perform with Scott and a couple of other members of the Bibbering Humdingers on some tunes. We're acquainted as colleagues from places like Pennsic where we usually pass each other by on our ways to our respective works. I don't think we've gotten to actually play together. This was a fun and a precious moment. They added just the right touches! They also covered some sonic space as a guest cameo as I took a break. - I got to debut a song that I thought would be great fun for this scene. - What I thought were some perfect tunes to play for the occasion! Thank you, Chessiecon for this lovely opportunity. I hope we get to do it again, some other... time!
