Gigs this week that are local to actually a surprisingly large number of you

[kaberett]

Helen Arney and Marian Call are fantastic geek songstresses -- I saw them both perform last night, at An Evening Of Unnecessary Detail, which was great -- and over the next week they're playing Bath (today), Edinburgh (tomorrow), Manchester (1st), London (again; the 2nd) and Cambridge (the third). More details at the link; I hadn't realised I needed the Elements Song filked about unobtanium and phlogiston but I really did. More info

Oh, hey, you were at a thing my sister performed at!

I like Helen Arney a lot.

(Last spring, she did a performance at the Cambridge Union, I think for the science festival, which I went to. And she did Lehrer's Elements song, and got briefly stuck, and I was able to sing out the next element for her, and she was off again.)

But I really can't go out on a schoolnight at the moment :(

Oooh, you didn't know about Marian Call? What about the Doubleclicks, have you discovered them?
