Everyone was so happy to see us
Jul. 10th, 2023 09:57 amDespite Sunday being hot, everything went well. It was so fun to see everyone at the local anime convention who dressed up in cosplay. There were 2 Vash (stampede variety), an Envy, Reki and Langa, as well as Shredder and April O'Neil from TMNT (not sure from which series - maybe OG animation?). Anyway, lots of cosplayers, which was cool. I didn't get a chance to walk artist alley but we got set up done and performed for the closing ceremonies. The crowd was so energetic!
I have been the creative director for this drum group since October 2016. It's only been the last year or so that I finally feel comfortable in my role and confidence in it as well. I feel that reflects on the group as well.
Slowly getting through my current project of adding my 'mark for later' to my Notion list. I am hoping AO3 has corrected today's issue by the time I get home so I can continue. Once that's done, my next goal is to go through the files I have saved (fics and then ebooks) and get things organized in Calibre. It's a full on hobby saving fanfiction LOL
This week is fairly mild. There's drum practice Tuesday and Thursday and then Saturday is the street fair we open for. It will be a hot one but at least we are early in the afternoon, at 11:30am. After that I have two practices with some bon odori dancers for the local Buddhist church's Obon festival on August 6th. But other than that, the street fair should be the last full taiko performance until September.
So there will be another lull so maybe we might get some new members and I can get them trained by the next festival. We shall see.
