replyWe have not yet made any bookings, but expect to. When we get back from our GRAND TOUR in May, Heather will make a few calls.

I don't know if it will be the weekend before or after yet, it kinda depends on who has what open and when. Plan on a Portland are gig, a Seattle are gig, and maybe even a Eugene/Salem or Olympia/Everett area gig, too.

replyAha! You just gotta be nice to the flower faeries, or they'll snub you!

BTW, Heather loved the flowers, even though she ended up giving them to her sister-in-law on Sunday, for safe keeping, fearing the travel would destroy them.

On another note, I give my humblest apologies to our listowner, because I foolishly referred to this list in the latest newsletter as filk at dragoncat.ORG not filk at dragoncat.NET. Unfortunately, it was printed before I found the error. sigh.
