It’s a melancholy, circus-like song called "The Fool's Brigade." The recording went off pretty much without a hitch. In fact, it was fantastic. Although we did have to borrow a couple of items at the last minute from our good friend Dave Lon, who happened to be on hand singing with us. The experience was great and a fun time was had by all. many thanks go out to everyone who sang along: Nathan Brant, Jennifer Chancellor, Thomas Conner, Michelle Davis, Mark Furnas, Ashley & Mindy Greyson, Danielle Gueck, Isaac, Taylor, & Zac Hanson, Rachel Kemp, Dave Lon, Brian Parton, Elvis & Angelene Ripley, Michael Soucek, Steven, Esther, and Maayan Stafford, Jeff "Swany" Swanson, Wanda Watson, and Jonny Wright. Thanks also to Zuri Louis and Michael Wyke for taking photos of the event." - courtesy of Admiral Twin. |
