Some fan art and photos

[cornerofmadness]

And a few fun links.

But first here is this video again. I forgot to ask, does anyone know who two of the women are, the first and the third? (I know the second is Margaret Cho) and oh, my apologies for making you see Jack Black twerk. Funny thing, this video came up in the Victorian funerary lecture (mainly the line about taking selfies with the deceased. it's a very old thing and wasn't considered tacky then).

Watch on YouTube

This is one I took. It's horrible. Why I took everyone's backs while dancing not sure but only kept it because the Temple guy is on the far right (apparently he started out with pants but got hot...) in full regalia.

The next few are not mine. You can go to Into the Pit photography on facebook and like his page. he has nearly 800 pictures so it might be awhile before mine are ready

These are the whiplash tribal fusion dancers (another reason to move to albany/athens, I could do something like this)

This was the little boy I mentioned and I'm assuming mom.

This fellow made both the backdrop AND the sasparilla it dispenses! Steam does bellow out of it.

And this is a gift (from evil_little_dog) and drawn by the talented Crossmirage. I think it's lovely.

Oh wow, these are cool!

Loved the artwork too! ♥

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

it's even m ore amazing if you know where I live. I'm shocked at the creativity (and expense) these Appalachians went to. then again it IS Athens which isn't like the rest of this place (home to hippies and the wealthy kids from Cleveland in part)

the art is very sweet.

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Great photos! It looks like a lot of people were having a great time.

Yay, I'm glad you finally received your art!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

They were. Everyone I saw seemed happy. I hope to snitch more photos

I'm glad too

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Please do share if you can! :D

The first one (in the lion sweater I USED TO OWN) is Aisha Taylor, the last is Kristen Schaal.

Some GREAT costumes!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks and that's hysterical about the sweater. I admit it, I wore a hands one like that in undergrad. geez

aren't they? I'm stunned at the level these people are at.

[wildrider.livejournal.com]

I loved that sweater. I wore it well into the 90's... (I think I only got rid of it because it was an extra large and it was too big for me!)

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

Even better

[seta-suzume.livejournal.com]

I enjoyed seeing these pictures from the steampunk ball (that little boy sure is cute) (and Roy and Riza too of course!) and I have bookmarked this entry to remind me to come back and play youtube radio with that list of songs!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks. I'm going to post a link to the rest in a little bit. Most of the songs were good. a few weren't for me
