Another Page in a Notebook. I've never sung in a band or show together... I wonder what it'll be like?
I met a fellow bard today - Ash Windsong. Quite an amiable fellow, though he keeps refering to the audience as 'marks' which I've heard before from other denizens of the open roads, but it does depress me so. I just want to make them happier; bring a little light into their lives. The gold is secondary, really.
Anyway, I was singing 'Long Dusty Highway' in the local tavern - poor things looked like they needed a spot of entertainment - when he came up and sang the last verses. I'd given up as my throat was rather dry, then he came and joined me. He was abandoned by his last group; they left him in the night and took all their instruments. What a horrible thing to happen to the poor fellow! I determined then and there that if I could find a local vendor, I'd get him something new to play. Poor fellow; I mean, I miss playing the violin, but at least I can say that I've never had such a thing happen to me before!
At any rate, he spoke of creating a big show, and of course I expressed an interest in such. Oh, it's going to be wonderful! |
