while looking for stuff about 'oldest songs', a link led me to a page by Avram Gruner, who has written a few, though not quite like most I have seen...thought you all might appreciate these 3 particularly...

Bill D - just thought I'd mention that I'm going to pass on "And the Band Played Appropriate Music" to a local band that plays "Waltzing Matilda" as part of their Folkie repertoire. It's f'hysterical! Do you know the Email where I can reach the fellow who wrote the filk version?

Thanks, Kyra
