Two Days Post-Con

I emailed the woman who said she was going to post her video of the Besom Brigade on YouTube, still no response. I'm so eager to see it! In a weekend full of highlights, performing in the WOW Besom Brigade with Victoria, Prudence Priest, Julie Epona, Minnha, Gary Suto, and Toad was one of the biggest. Malendia rehearsed with us, but couldn't stay until our Monday performance. Prudence, Victoria and I had all done it before and knew just how much fun it can be. Minha was new and loved it. I've know Gary and Toad for a long time, but this was the first time we were all in the same place at the same time and could do this together. Both have plenty of theatrical experience. Toad contributed some great new steps and gestures that really added to the polish or our routines.

When we marched through the hotel hallways and arrived at the big lobby area, this huge cheer erupted from the crowd. No one could have made her way through the lobby while we were performing because the social area in front of the fireplace, the various clusters of chairs for conversation, the open hotel bar area, and all the space around the central lobby was lined with people, sitting, standing, filling every square inch, and cheering riotously.

Cameras flashing everywhere, we made nary a mistake. Now if I could only get some photos to show you -- and to see myself.

I can hardly wait for the film! I'm really looking forward to it--meanwhile, thanks so much for sharing what you have so far.

Bright blessings!

Sounds like lots of fun.

On a different note, could you drop me an email at moondancer (at) nemedcuculatii (dot) org? I've a question for you, and don't have your email address on this computer.

Thanks,
Herb/Moondancer

Indeed, Hecate, it is. I couldn't find it when I looked, and the woman who took it didn't respond to my email asking her to let me know when and where it was. Victoria sent me the same link. Thanks.
