Hi, Bill -
You are very wise to assign Roger and me to jobs that do not require us to play instruments, or - heaven forbid - to sing! There's a rumor going around that Ed Stabler is composing a cantata for washboard, banjo, bagpipe and yodeler. I presume his intent is that the bagpipe will drown out the yodeler. If he's able to get 'er done - and if we have time to rehearse at least once - it will be premiered at Osier on 06/30/12 for riders on The Friends moonlight dinner train ...
