I have no idea how big filk is in the overall scheme of things over here, but most years there is a group of filkers that gather at our local con. I actually used to be more active; I used to join in the filks and at least listen, even if I wasn't always comfortable singing. And a couple of times I hosted filk parties at my house, since a year between get-togethers seemed too long. But, the last few years I've somehow missed the action at the con, so I've been satisfying myself with CDs, which are usually available in the dealer's room.
