This is the landing page, kind of an overview of what's going on and what we're about. Plus it has a picture of The Screech sitting on Richard Glover's head.
Here we have the concerts page, which has playable tracks from most of the people who have stage time. Not all, because some people don't do that, which is totally cool. But most.
Workshops, events, and more workshops! Did I mention workshops? Also panel programming, we have that too. Like Cascadia's Got Talent!, our tongue-in-cheek talent show. There are prizes - terrible, terrible prizes. XD
Pass these around to anybody who might be coming, or thinking about coming, to Norwescon this year. I'm really pretty happy with where nwcMUSIC is going, and people have a good time once they find out about it, so let them know.

Hey everybody, I'm Dara, head of nwcMUSIC, music programming at Norwescon. WELCOME TO THE GEEKMUSIC GRID!
( Programming GridCollapse )There are so many things to talk about I don’t know where to start, even. MONSTARRS OF NERDCORE is a two-hour multiband nerdcore extravaganza, featuring Death*Star and Klopfenpop, and possibly a surprise. Yes, that’s Molly Lewis, making her debut at Norwescon on Saturday night, with Vixy & Tony as her backup band. Yes, that’s Hello The Future on Friday. Yes, Alexander James Adams will be doing one of his rare shows this year at our event. Yes, that’s Guest of Honour Catherine Asaro – who is also a musician as well as a writer and a brain surgeon research scientist, doing the Buckaroo Banzai/Hong Kong Cavaliers thing on Friday afternoon; CD Woodbury will be bringing in some of his friends as backup. And yes, that’s 13 hours of workshops and panel programming during the day, all with our determinedly DIY/participatory culture emphasis in mind.
Plus other artists I am so excited about I can’t even tell you. HeyLasFas? Pony Progrock. They released a concept album about the fall of Princess Luna, called Nightfall, and seriously it is amazing…
Now. Where. Were. We?
I’m not going to cover all this in one post, so you’ll have to take my word for it. We have so much going on this year we had to make a hopefully-one-time exception to one of our rules, and overlap music programming, just a little. (KidsFilk and MONSTARRS OF NERDCORE.) And if you know me, you know how much I try to avoid that – but there just wasn’t any other way to fit it all in. Chiptunes, filk, Jpop, nerdcore, ponyrock… did I mention Leannan Sidhe’s CD release concert? I guess I just did. XD
Easter weekend 2013, people. It’s gonna be epic.

Have you been thinking about Artists' Alley and how you would love to participate this year? Do you have an application sitting in your inbox but haven't returned it to the AA Manager? Well if you are waiting you had better get a move on!
Artists' Alley has begun to receive apps for this year and our slots will fill up very quickly (no, no not that...geesh). I would love to see some new faces as well as ones that have been there before! If you are an artist and want to demo what you can do and teach a little about your art please come and join us.
You can fill out an application through the main website or contact me for an electronic copy at artistsalley@norwescon.org/
I look forward to hearing from you!
