Travel Ireland, Scotland and Beyond with Celtic Invasion Vacations

GenCon is over. As much as I love the con, boy, am I tired! I'm ready for a few days of recoup, but "days" is the wrong turn of phrase. I have today. The show whole weekend was fun, fantastic with lots of amazing people. I think it's the people I love best at this convention. They're pretty laid back. They're friendly and fun. I saw nothing but smiles all weekend, even in those grumpy mornings when folks were up after not enough sleep. It's a wonderful environment. Add on top of that some amazing people to work with like Jeannette, Tiana, Todd, LT, and good friends and musicians like Apryl Knight, the Great Luke Ski, Dan the Bard, Water Street Bridge, Il Troubadore, Mikey Mason. It's just a tremendously awesome weekend. I also enjoyed meeting Sarah Donner, who tore it up at Friday Night Live this year. I want to thank each and every person who came by and said hi. Thanks to everyone who attended my shows. And a big thanks to those who supported the arts by buying a CD. I hope you love the new albums!

It's the final day of the GenCon. I'm tired. But I still have a couple hours of performing in the lobby before the long drive home. So I did final podcast to chat with musicians and helpers and share some of the fun. Was that English? Tiired.

I am in Indianapolis once again for GenCon. I added a new Wednesday evening show that went well despite Autoharp and location problems. Now it's time to rock out the rest of the con. Sponsored by Lunarpages http://marcgunn.com/lunarpages

I'm back after a week off from vacation on the beach with the family. Kenzie's school started back up so I'm also back to a regular work schedule. Today, I'm pleased to share all of the news I missed this past couple weeks. I list my upcoming shows and apologize for a Celtic podcast screwup. Plus, I get to talk about my "new" autoharp It's like the Six Million Dollar Man, faster, stronger, better than before. Learn what I look for in an autoharp.

I saw an advertisement for a lady's fashion store with the most appalling anorexic woman on the ad. It raised an idea for a parody advertisement that I decided not to share. Was it too much? Find out more about it in this week's Celtic Geek. http://marcgunn.com/celticgeek037
