So, not to be overly dramatic or whatnot, but we are officially announcing the soon(ish, maybe, hopefully)-to-be-launched (probably on a Tuesday) OZ 9 THE GAME (fundraiser)! We are in the throes of game creation, and it's silly, chaotic, and hopefully good fun. Hopefully.
Oz 9 Narrators on a starry background. Narrator says "It’s quiet aboard the Oz 9 — only the soft click of dice and shuffling of cards interrupt the deep silence. Occasionally an evil laugh, usually followed by a muttered oath, peels through the corridors, bouncing off the walls and startling the egrets into flight. For the Oz 9 has become a TTRPG* of sorts, and the crew are even now sorting out the bumps, rumples, and gaping holes in the game’s design. Or creating more, which is frankly much more likely. The thin and hollow voice of Lady Nibble Biscuit echoes through the hallways, reminding us to keep an eye out for the eventual fund-raising campaign to turn this morass of cards, dice, weird little figures, bits of cardboard, and bad ideas into a game one might voluntarily choose to play. Stay tuned, the voice whispers around corners and from deep in the shadows. “Stay tuned,” indeed. Meanwhile...." N2's text is covered up by the Narrator's speech bubble.

For the past few years, my daughter Lia has been performing with this group for Christmas (formed by her beloved teacher Ken Brader, who passed earlier this year). For her senior year, I get to dust off the old trombone and join her.

Anyone who knows me can tell you I don't post selfies, but...They Might Be Giants made me do it at their Philly concert. @tmbg.bsky.social
