[Bards] Differing Styles

[Pat Mullins]

I once lost a bardic competition (I've lost a lot of bardic competitions) to the combination  Robin mentioned earlier - sappy French love song, sappy French love poem - both performed from behind a piece of paper. Very period pieces, fairly well done for a talking piece of paper. Actually, the paper sang beautifully! My funny, entertaining, original, but *not* period pieces never had a chance.

  I can even document it. 
   
  But I doubt it would be accepted in any competition. Which really has nothing to do with anything, but this is a great conversation, so I thought I'd whack it with my own scarlett herring.
