minstrel: exchanging music tapes

[Danielle Bomball]

Greetings,

I really like the mix-and-match tape idea.  Maybe we could start a tape mailing circle?  Someone starts by sending a tape with one of their songs to the first person on the list.  That person adds a song to the tape and sends it to the next person on the list.  The shipping cost for a tape is not that expensive, and this would be a good way to spread "local" songs.

This would be even better if documentation and lyrics were included in the package.  Allowing those on the list to copy for individual use would be nice, but that's something I'd include on the lyric sheet.

I'd be willing to start something like this if folks are interested.

Astrid

If they don't (and they _really_ should...), there are some folk in
Ansteorra who can show you some good songs.  I am assuming you are in
Austin, yes?  Then it is a hop, skip, and a jump to Stargate.  Hit up Master
Avatar for good period songs.  Contact Baron Michael Silverhands - he has
books.  In fact, he has some of Master Avatar's books.  If you are up this
way (Barony of Namron, northern Ansteorra), let me know you are coming and
I'll share what I have, or hook you up with Master Michael and his library.
He supplied the Greenwood Singers with good music for many years.  In the
Elfsea area, talk to Baroness Xene.  I understand they were trying to get
some musicians together not too long ago.

I like the idea of sharing tapes.  Maybe we should all shove our excessive
humility in the corner and actually tape ourselves, making copies to trade
at big events.  Send some to Pennsic, Estrella, or Gulf Wars.  Throw all the
tapes in a helmet, then pull one out at random.  One for one, no repeats,
can't take home one you brought.
