Worldcon day 2: one concert

The great part of not actually being at the worldcon is that you don't feel guilty for missing anything. I didn't watch any panels today (though I'd have liked to see the recording of one from Thursday that I missed if they'd put up the recordings yet), but around evening-time I wondered what they were doing for evening entertainment tonight, as the costumes are tomorrow and the awards on Sunday.

It turned out to be a concert of anime music. A group which both looked and sounded like a high-school jazz orchestra played some occasionally modestly interesting jazz-type compositions while the emcee stood in front, embodying the "wave arms around until music stops" school of non-conducting when he bothered to do anything at all.
