Just an FYI, the FilkConbobulated room block closes on Thursday! Book early and ... well ... book early.

Located in the Crowe & Dove House deep in the wilds of Iowa!

We did a walkthrough of the space this week. Got a better idea of how things are going to fit. Completely confused the hotel guy, who could not wrap his head around the idea of a filk circle. He was worried that it would be too loud. It took several go arounds to get him to understand that it was all acoustic.

We have completed our PA system. We've wanted to add to our system for some time. We're going to run tests this weekend, just to make sure I know all of the interesting parts of it, and don't have to work those out on the fly at the con. The two speakers combined do not weigh as much as one of the speakers from our old PA.

A few FYIs.

We will have an Interfilk auction. Bring things for it if you wish.

The room block closes June 4. Get in there and get your reservations soon.

Pre-Reg closes June 19. If you have attendees under 18, or otherwise still in school, get their badges at the con, it will cost less there. We'll get that added to the website next year.

We will have another update in a week or two, but things are going really well so far. Now to see how the con actually goes!

Located in the Crowe & Dove House deep in the wilds of Iowa!

The room block closes June 4th, get your reservations in before that. The code is good from Thursday to Sunday.

Pre-reg closes June 19th. Registration at the con will be card only. If at all possible please pre-reg so we have a better idea of how many are coming.

If you backed the Go Fund Me and have not let us know if you are attending, please send me an email, my address is on the website.

The food guide is available on the Hotel page on the website as well as in the files in the FCB Facebook group.

The website has been updated with this information.

The Ropers will be there selling CDs.

The numbers are looking very good. I am actually a little concerned about whether our mainstage area will be large enough to seat everyone. What a terrible problem to have!

See you soon!

We're off this week, we have an all music show for you. We'll be back next week with a regular show!

Available on iTunes, Google Play and most other places you can get podcasts. We can be heard Wednesday at 6am and 9pm Central on scifi.radio.

We're just a little over two months away from this craziness that we have decided to commit.

Our room block is moving along nicely, as are registrations. I'm sitting here and listening to EuroFilk while working on the first draft of the program book. I have an idea for the cover but I need someone to do a bit of artwork for it. Simple semi-realistic person with a guitar in a specific pose, one color. If this is something that interests you, send me an email and we can talk. ericcoleman @ gmail.

We have our evil plans for the gathering after opening ceremonies.

Staff has come together, and we have several people who are willing to help on sound.

Sound gear is close to being put together.

It's all falling into place.
