MeTa post: Let's sing!

I do something like this here in my hometown. Best of luck with the endeavour, and if you need advice about anything, I'd be happy to help.

MeTa post: Ottawa.

Next Saturday is probably not workable for me, but what about Friday night (the 15th) or Sunday night (the 17th)?

Everybody, I'm going to try and make a reservation at Vineyeards for us under the name of "Metafilter" - if you arrive at the bar and can't find us, ask the bartender to point you to our table. :)

Ok, everyone, the reservation is confirmed at Vineyards at 7:30 pm, on February 17th, under the name "Metafilter". See you there!

You can always call the Vineyards and change the reservation, Phire! :)

Niccolo, seeing you post that makes me bloody angry. I instructed the bartender to mark us down as "metafilter", and I watched him write it down. There's no excuse on his part not to know where we were!

Bonehead and I were down there two weeks ago, and asked for a meetup. Hope yours works better than ours did.

MeTa post: On the unbearable anonymous of being

I haven't provided my real name on this site, but people seem to find me anyway. In fact, I'm meeting with another traditional singer from Toronto this very evening, who wants to chat with me regarding some songs I posted to MeMu. She apparently thinks they're great stuff.

MeTa post: Holiday Meetup in O-town.

Well, what about the 15th of December??

I have responsibilities on the 16th; although I'd be free by 6:30 or so. What do others think?

Bonehead and I were there, we had a little sign on the table and everything! :(

MeTa post: So, did you survive eating the sandwich?

I'm still working for the same crazy lady, although there are job prospects shimmering on the horizon.

However, none of those job prospects involve academe.

And, I'm single with no nibbles, despite being on OKCupid, and therefore have had no opportunity to fix my jerk detector.... [more]

quidnunc, I can't afford plane fares for yourself and your stoats, but if you want to come, I'm sure we can make room in the session criteria for some mute interpretive dance on your part.

D'awwww, my first sarcastic comment. Now I really feel like I belong! *sniff*

OK, to clarify...

The no-talking thing really wasn't meant as a deterrent, it's just that any singing that's going to happen will be unamplified (sung from the floor, as opposed to the stage), and Rasputin's is a small place. A lot of talking is going to force the singer to push their voice harder than normal, which isn't nice.

So please don't think that there won't be any opportunity for socializing. But I'm asking that you don't shout your... [more]
