Beyond the Rim – Beth Kinderman

I’m clinging to your memory, when the light has gotten dim
So not things shall pass beyond the Rim

“Beyond the Rim,” by Beth Kinderman, “a tribute to the many people involved with Babylon 5 who have passed away long before their time.”

Underneath the Mask – Beth Kinderman

And here’s to all the rebels and the ones who never settled
They were with me all along
They wandered undercover as I hungered for a lover
And I wondered what when wrong

I haven’t posted in ages, and I feel bad about that.  Have a Star War!

“Underneath the Mask,” by Beth Kinderman.  I got to sing with Beth at Marscon this year, she’s great.  Anyone who ends up at a convention in the Midwest somewhere, I strongly advise looking for her.

Sung by Beth Kinderman, featuring Justin Hartley on drums and Dave Stagner on electric guitar and synths.

Another post-apocalyptic song by Leslie Fish, sung by Mark Heiman.  This is one of my favorite Fish songs, but I’ve never actually heard it sung by her.

@filkyeahfilk It’s on youtube

AWESOME thank you! This definitely wasn’t there the first time I looked for it, so if someone has been uploading old Firestorm stuff, that’s amazing.

Truck Driver to the Stars – Starlight


It’s been said that a lot of sci-fi over-glorifies the role of what are essentially trucker drivers in space, but…it would be really cool to be a truck driver in space, so I’m not sure what the problem is.
“Truck Driver To The Stars,” written by Richard Glover, performed by Richard Glover and an unknown combination of several people who are listed on the Bandcamp.

Thirteen – Crime and the Forces of Evil

Hey, the new song is up! There are actually several new songs in the pipeline but this is the one that’s finished right now. It’s called “Thirteen,” and it’s a free download, though you can always hit the tip jar if you like it.

I made it for Conflikt, where I was MCing as Toastmuppet this past weekend. It’s a filk convention – geek music goes back a while, this is a geek folk music (“filk”) con – so of course I made them some geek folk metal, a semi-cover of the Vixy & Tony track “Thirteen.”

Their original isn’t about Doctor Who contemplating his own mortality after running out of regenerations, though. That’s just my version. I was all, “What’s the filkiest thing I can do for this con? Oh, I know, take a well-known filk track and make it even geekier by making it about the Doctor.”

Their original is here, if you want a listen. It’s quite different.

More on Conflikt tomorrow. I shot parts of the con with a fisheye-lens film camera. YEAH I SAID FILM IT IS HILARIOUS I HAD TO STEAL IT FROM THE PRESIDENT ORDER IT FROM JAPAN. I also said fisheye, because the camera was a gift and it has a fisheye lens and you can’t turn it off. FULL-THROTTLE FISHINESS BEGINS TOMORROW!

Assuming the film comes out. I don’t even know. I sure hope it does, I’m not joking about it being imported from the home islands. It’s the last place you can buy ISO 1600 colour film as far as I know.
Okay that’s enough words. LESS TALK MORE FILK!

I finally set up a Soundcloud account, and put this on it. 😀 (Also Kaiju Meat. I should probably put all my most fandom-related songs on it.)
