Last on the Field (AUDIO) Festival of Maidens 2016 Bardic Circle Words and performance: Master Alexander de Seton Music: Leave Her (trad) Finally, a moving piece to close out the night. Before singing, we joked that a certain person would show up just as we were singing the last song, and lo and behold she did! (Hence the laughter a few seconds in) Lyrics: As he fell I heard my Captain say, "Leave now, Johnny, leave now." Oh the shield wall's gone, and we've lost the day, and it's time for us to leave now. Chorus: Leave now, Johnnny, leave now, Oh leave now, Johnny, leave now; For the battle is done and the bodies are cold and it's time for us to leave now. I took my sword and I took my shield, leave now Johnny, leave now But I never took time to quit the field, and it's time for us to leave now. (Chorus) I gained the bridge and I got some rest, leave now Johnny, leave now And it's there I held the enemy's best, and it's time for us to leave now (Chorus) Their swords and shields they thrust at me, leave now Johnny, leave now But in the time I held, my mates got free, and it's time for us to leave now (Chorus) I hear my Captain call to me, "Leave now, Johnny, leave now." As I look down, my body I see, and it's time for us to leave now. |

Lutefisk and Yams (AUDIO) Festival of Maidens 2016 Bardic Circle Written by: Ulf Gunnarson Performed by: Master Alexander de Seton A wonderfully funny Scandinavian take on one of everyone's favourite Dr Seuss poems! I know the background is rather noisy; turn on subtitles if you're having troubles understanding! Poem: Lutefisk and Yams ©Ulf Gunnarson (John Ruble) Hark and ware, oh Warrior! Weird of Sven now hear you. How good Lars he harried, pestered him with questions. Late at meadhall light burned; Lars did strive to largen belly with a bowl of boiled fish his mission. And some chunks of chicken, cheese and bread and peasoup, finally pounds of pancakes paired with lingon berries. Smallish snack he snuck while woozy wife lay snoozing. When inside there wandered forth a fellow northman. Lars did greet him greatly for he knew the gruesome tales of host who hasten travellers forth from doorstep. Lars did ask his name then. "I am Sven," he mentioned. "Sven I am," he stated. "Do you like lutefisk and yams?" "Nay." said Lars, "though largely like I food most goodly, but I do not like lutefisk and yams, I do not like them Sven I am." "Ah," said Sven most sagely. "Would you eat them on a trip? Would you eat them on your ship?" "Nay," said Lars, "though largely like I food most goodly, but I would not eat them on a trip. I would not eat them on my ship. I do not like lutefisk and yams, I do not like them, Sven I am." "Ah," said Sven. "Then maybe might you eat them on a raid? Might you eat them with a maid?" "Nay," said Lars most strongly. "Like I food most goodly, but I would not eat them on a raid, I would not eat them with a maid, I would not eat them on a trip, I would not eat them on my ship. I do not like lutefisk and yams. I do not like them, Sven I am." "Hmmm," said Sven, "Good fellow, would you eat them on the field? Would you eat them off your shield?" "Nay!" cried Lars most wrothly, "Like I food most goodly, but I would not eat them on the field, I would not eat them off my shield, I would not eat them on a raid, I would not eat them with a maid, I would not eat them on a trip, I would not eat them on my ship. I do not like lutefisk and yams. I do not like them, Sven I am." Sven then looked most crafty. He then slyly stated: "Would you eat them served up cold? Would you eat them if I paid you gold?" "Well," said Lars, "since largely, Like I food most goodly... I might like lutefisk and yams. I might like them, Sven I am." Sven produced this Swedish yam and lutefisk sample. Lars did test this tasty treat then longly pondered. Stoutly Lars then stated: "I despise lutefisk and yams. I despise them, Sven I am. I will not eat them served up cold, I will not eat them if you pay me gold. I will not eat them on the field, I will not eat them off my shield, I will not eat them on a raid, I will not eat them with a maid, I will not eat them on a trip, And I will NOT eat them on MY ship! I do not like lutefisk and yams, I do not like them, Sven I am." And he slew Sven. |

Post-Revel Midrealm Bardic Madness 2017 We had a limited amount of time for the Post-Revel/Bardic Circle after Mid-Realm Bardic Madness XIX: Bardic By the Numbers - Primus to Extremus, 18 November 2017, and so everyone was asked to just pick, pass, or play without introduction or explanation. I decided it would be more fun to edit it all together as one piece so everyone could get the feel of what it was like. Other than a few technical difficulties, here is most all of what went on for the last two hours of the event. Enjoy! |
