any song that is preformed well or act that is pulled off by a bard would
works ... folk filk county gospel what ever ... anything that sounds
traditional works ...does not have to be old to sound like it should be ...
i have seen bards singing john denver and winning over crowd .. or taking
well known song and singing different words...  telling a twisted a little
fairy tail or old maids tail .... we should have bardic meetings to test
some of these .... just for bardic fair practice ....animate .. articulate
or gyrate .... one of them will win over someone in the crowd....
