On September 29 we all showed up at the Craighead Forest Bandshell for Blues Fest and there was no electricity. Fortunately, I had my JBL Eon One Compact to use with Bebop Beatniks and it has batteries.
We ran the whole day one that amp. After Bebop Beatniks we heard The Spencer Brothers and Doug Butler. All the performances were great. I'm already playing some of the songs on Something Blue.

And here's the Bebop Beatniks video on Youtube.

On October 6 we had bands. Blues bands. Rock bands. We moved to another location at Craighead Forest Park that had electricity. Thanks to Doug Butler for putting on the show and all the extra work he had to do. Thanks to Hairy Larry and The Flying Hungarians, Mike McLeod, John Shepherd and, the host band, Anna and the Tanks for playing. I recorded video and audio of all the acts and will be linking to the performances in this newsletter as I get them done.
Besides Bebop Beatniks, a jazz quartet, I am working with two other bands, Jazz Buskers, a vocals group, and United Gospel Trio, piano, organ, and bass, playing jazz from the hymnbook.
I went to The Biscuit in Helena. I played a lot of music. I visited with a lot of friends. I had a great time. Hat tip to Brent, Pat, Mayor Mike, John, Josh Parks, Diamond Jack, Elan, Bilbo King, John Shepherd, Jeremy Burnett, Gregg Cook, and The Emporium Orkestra with Rhode Island Red, Pinky Lee, and Mark.
Tell me about your music and your festivals. I will share on Delta Boogie and in the newsletter.

I wrote a TTRPG called The Dragon's Egg.

At noon today I'm going to Library Game Day at the Jonesboro Public Library, which is hosted every month by NEA Gamers Guild. I'm going to play some RPGs and I may get to play test The Dragon's Egg.

I wrote a program called Embedding Mastodon Threads that makes it easy to embed a conversation on Mastodon in your blog or website. I had some help. I want to thank.
@jeff@soapbox.hackdefendr.com
@conniptions@mastodon.social
@EcksDy@techtoots.com
@malin@dice.camp
These are their Mastodon addresses. They helped me, on Mastodon, to write an addon program for Mastodon. I write about the whole experience here.

And you can check it out here.

The program is licensed GPL.
I am working on two more Free Culture projects now, Indie Archive, an archive solution for indie shops who really don't want to lose their digital creations, and ExifGal, an addon to one of Malin's projects where he uses a Gitlab repository and exiftools to store and catalog Creative Commons and Public Domain images.
My music and games are also licensed Free Culture. I use the Creative Commons Attribution license, CC BY. Just like WOCs SRD but I did it before them and nobody had to twist my arm.
If you're not on Mastodon yet, you are welcome to join Gamer+DBN, Gamer+ and the Delta Boogie Network, here.
