FINNCON FILK SINGING: AMBERGRIS SEND UP




Direct YouTube Link here.

One of the wonderful surprises about Finncon was a filk singing tribute to Ambergris. They did songs for all of the guests of honor. I had expected it would be a roasting, not such a lovely and truly thoughtful event. I thought their voices were great, too. Hopefully someone will post in the comments field with all of their names. One of them was also a gray cap in the masquerade, I believe, and an editor at a magazine called Legolas. We met so many people, I am having trouble keeping all the names straight.

Marianna Leikomaa (who is not an editor of Legolas, just an occasional reporter for it, but may - if pressed - admit to being a gray cap)
Liisa Rantalaiho
Janne Lautamäki
Onerva Leisti
Ari Seppi

We're glad you liked it! :)
