[Fwd: Re: Vivat! Trimaris queries]

[Jim Manikas]

I am new to the SCA but from my reading of what a minstral or a Bard does,
passing on songs and stories from around the known world fits the profile
exactly.  Doesn't it?  I think that there are many people that would have an
interest in hearing what other kingdows are doing, even if they might
recognize the person being talked about.  I know I do.   If this tape does
become available to people outside your kingdom please let me know.  Thanks.

Apparently, according to this message, the "Vivat! Trimaris" tape and book are
only 
for sale within the kingdom of Trimaris, and only at certain events.  I think
this is 
a sad thing.  I personally would like any ballad I write to go as far across
the 
Knowne World as possible.  And outside of the Knowne World, I'm not sure
there's much 
I will write that will be of interest.  We are creating our own history as we
go, and 
I believe in recording that history in song, and I would think that that
history is of 
interest in other kingdoms as well - I've read several songs about a rebellion
in 
another kingdom that were wonderful (one of which was "Ye Bureaucrats By
Name".)

How do the rest of you feel about this, by the way?  How many of us write as
well as 
sing?  Why do you write songs/poetry?  How far do you want your works to
spread?  And 
those of you who just perform, how many of you are strict authenticists, how
many 
filkers, how many choose to relate songs of the Knowne World?

Yes, we have both tape and book. They will be on sale at Coronation at 
the end of March. Please do not send orders through the mail...we 
don't want to be responsible for lost checks or money orders. The cost of 
tape and book together is $13 while supplies of the tape last. As far as 
I know, there are no plans to make a new printing run of the tape. Other 
that tne package price, tapes are $10 and books are $5.

In Service,


Rurik
