My Mouth Writing Checks.....
So, I was at an Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) event.
The SCA is a medieval living history group, and the event was Day of Dance II & Bardic Bachanal.
It was potluck with dancing and bardic (music and story telling).
At the end of the evening, someone publicly thanked the musicians, and we all applauded, and then I shouted out, "Play Freebird."
And damned if they did not start to play "Freebird", on a guitar, a mandolin, a tenor recorder, and a bowed psalter...The lyrics were a filk, rather than the original, but the tune was there.
My life is complete now.
