Concerts

Every year, OVFF presents many fine concerts.

There is the Pegasus Award Nominees concert on Friday night. On Saturday, there is the Toastmaster concert, the GoH concert, the InterFilk guest concert, and even occasionally one given by the Honored Listener as well as concerts given by other members of the filk community. On Sunday, there is the New Voices concert and the Chamberfilk workshop ensemble also performs.

There are also concerts given by other members of the filk community.

Friday Concert Schedule

Pegasus Nominees Concert

The Pegasus Award Nominees concert is held every year at OVFF on Friday night after the Mad Hatter Tea Party. At this concert, all of the songs nominated in the "Best Filk Song", "Best Classic Filk Song", and that year's two rotating categories (this year, it's "Baddest-Ass Song" and "Most Romantic Song") are presented; sometimes by the composer, sometimes by other performers. This affords OVFF attendees one last chance to hear the songs before all voting closes.

Midnight: End of the World Theme Filk

Evangelist Harold Camping has predicted that the world is going to end on Friday 21-Oct-11 - after being postponed from 21-May-11 (see http://mg.co.za/article/ 2011-05-26-so-the-end-of-world-has-been-postponed/) OVFF is marking this cataclysmic event in (what else?) song! Come prepared with a song about YOUR favorite way to end the world?

One-Shots

For those who do not have a concert, but have songs or other performance pieces that they want to share with the entire convention, there are the One-Shots.
Because of the level of interest in performing at OVFF, performance slots are awarded by a random drawing. Entry forms for the one-shots drawing will be at the con registration table.

OVFF's Taping Policy

Individuals are welcome to record tapes of performances on the concert stage and in the open filks for their own private use as long as the recording is unobtrusive and the performer's implied permission is given. Performers have the option of announcing, "Please dont record me" prior to their performance, and we expect everyone to comply with their wishes. Failure to do so will have negative results.

If you are interested in taping this year's convention for commercial reproduction, please write us for a bid package.
