Steve Macdonald HoF IF DI

Since 2002 (the last time Steve updated his bio), Steve's life has changed quite a bit. It's comforting to note that he still loves his children, plays music, and is eternally falling behind in his email. But he doesn't do any of this in Michigan any more. In 2004 he went full time pro-musician for the summer and played all the local Renaissance Faires. In April 2005 he moved to Atlanta, Georgia with a spanking new job, and he got to hang out with Rob Wynne and Bill and Brenda Sutton.

In September 2006, he moved to Germany to marry Katy Dröge (now Katy Dröge-Macdonald. And yes, it's just as cool as you think it is.)

And because he doesn't like to be idle, in 2007, Steve decided he missed close harmony quartet singing. So, he asked Katy and friends Eva and Rafael Van Daele-Hunt to try out a few songs; which turned into the first filk barbershop quartet 'Barbership'. This led to him directing the harmony workshops at FilkContinental in both 2009 and 2010; teaching barbershop harmony to filk.

And if that wasn't enough, while plotting with Sibylle Machat for a birthday party; they hatched a new filk con together called DFDF (Das Frühlingsfest der Filksmusik) in 2009.

Steve stepped down as Pegasus Evangelista after the 2005 Awards, but he still serves on the Pegasus Committee in an advisory capacity. He also maintains the Pegasus Nominees and OVFF websites.

Yes, the WorlDream WILL happen... someday.

It is a malicious rumor that he was abandoned as a child by the Vicious Bloodthirsty Interior Decorators of the planet Gachnaruk. He wishes that Scott Snyder would stop spreading it.
