I'll be competing again in the annual World Championship Old-Time Piano
Playing Contest.  Weekend of May 23-25 at the Hotel Pere Marquette in Peoria,
Illinois.  In old-time costume, of course.  I've got my six selections pretty
much picked out and am getting them into shape for the competition.

The weekend will offer lots of old-timey music, afterglow parties, seminars.
Y'all come!  See http://www.oldtimepiano.com for details.

For those attending Penguicon May 2-4, I'll be one of the DJ's on Radio-
Free Fandom.  I don't know the exact time, but it'll be during the 
evening hours.  I'll be spinning a selection of celtic instrumentals.

And if your into OTR (old-time radio), my bud John will be running his 
show, The Glowing Dial, which was heard on C-band.  He'll be playing 
various sci-fi radio shows from back in the 40's/50's.

Feel free to stop by and say "Hi!"  See the program book for the radio 
freq.

  Are you no longer a trio?

#16 of 21 by scott on Thu May 15 19:34:59 2003:

For some reason we have to be at least a quartet to get gigs like this,
so yeah, we're now a "group" and have a percussionist.

I announced this before, but the event is imminent, so I'll repeat
myself.  I'm a contestant in World Championship Old-Time Piano Playing
Contest. It's being held this weekend, May 23-25, at the historic
Hotel Pere Marquette in Peoria, Illinois.  See http://www.oldtimepiano.com
for details.  I'll be performing two numbers at an as-yet-to-be-determined
time on Saturday, and, if I'm fortunate enough to make the semifinals
(top 10 contestants), two on Sunday and, if I make it to the finals
(top 5 contestants), two more on Sunday as well.  Last year I made the
semifinals; we shall see how it goes this time around.

If you have any liking for this type of music and can make it to
Peoria, it should be a fun weekend.  A number of wonderful performers
are competing, and in addition there are seminars and after-hours jam
sessions.  I'll pay the admission of any Grexer who shows up and makes
their presence known to me at the event.

I guess you'll get to answer for yourself whether it plays in Peoria...  ;-)
