And as the Pegasus Evangelista; I'm more than willing to support it as
well.

The problem is, however; that voting on the Nominating Ballot closes
August 1. THEN I have to contact all the potential Finalists and acquire
the appropriate permissions before we can generate the Final Ballot.

Which means... about a week (*maybe* 2) lead time before the con before we
even know what songs and artists are nominated. Then the scramble of finding
folk who can play the songs. :)

It gets mighty tight to do a concert at Worldcon. Judith and I worked very
closely together last year to make it happen at Torcon; and I'm willing to
do whatever is needed to make it happen this year.
