MFF FVS 2012 The Song that Goes Like This by Major (21of24)

"Always like being able to see the video - shows all the mistakes that I made - most are not likely noticed by the casual audience, but more experienced puppeteers often have given good advice. Part of the song that worked best this year was the…"

MidWest FurFest 2012 thoughts

My time to seriously start planning MidWest Furfest - performance concepts. The variety show and puppet show. Concepts 1. last year done at the small puppet show Dog and Wolf singing a Monty Python song. 2. Mr. Rover's Neighborhood - to go with the "came from television theme" taking part Mr. Rogers return as a dog - start of his show leading in to possible singing attempt with the music to the Complete Cheers theme as a theme for Fur Fest. – the show name never is mentioned in the song. And…See More

Sesame Street for Boomers?

FurPets or Kids Heaven Puppets

Ok - up to three puppets - and for the known future I am sticking with Folkmanis puppets - as I like them best and can obtain them at very low cost (send me a message if you want to know how- almost another sort of message board club type of survey and discussion thing that I can invite new people to join).
