What to do at a three-day bacchanal?

I keep saying this, but I really should do karaoke at Matsuricon. "Art of the Dress" is likely to trip me up all over the place, though. Pff.

'Cause otherwise, I am running low of ideas for New Things to Try At Cons. I feel too old for a rave. I don't do hookups. I feel as though I have stage fright, but I did fine singing at our wedding reception in front of 100 people, half of whom I don't actually know that well. So karaoke would probably be fine.

Finally did a photoshoot at Tekkoshocon. Entered AMV contests. Had Alley tables plenty of times. Went to MSTing-type screenings, regular screenings, AMV screenings, actor panels/signings, workshops, competitions, concerts, fan-run panels on various things. Bought merch, DVDs, manga, Alley art. Went to a formal dance. Went to one rather bleh mass meetup. Costumed other people, costumed myself. Took a few photos of other people, though not enough to really post a good collection afterwards.

Surprise me, Matsuricon!


Anyway. New scenes new scenes eeeee!

Yaaaaay.

Nothing big, either, just "let's check in at point Q with a little tone-setting scene." x3 or so. Can't all be giant turning points.

OTOH, I have wasted a bunch of time trawling through TVTropes and making a list for myself of things that pertain to the story. Totally pointless. Too fun. Regret nothing.

Go for it! I remember LJing back in 2008/2009 to convince myself to do karaoke at AnimeNEXT for the first time, and then after the fact, I wondered why I hadn't tried it sooner. Just remember to drink lots of water to keep the throat working properly.

If you particularly care about audience reaction, they tend to really really enjoy anything that's high-energy (like JAM Project) or anything they can join in on (like the Pokémon OP -- that one just never seems to get old).
