Thanks, Valmai -- sounds like yet another grand (and gory) day.

I'm interested in the notion of singing a ballad with several voices and can see some attraction, but I'd be curious to know how an audience responds to this method: part of me wonders if it might diffuse the tension of a ballad such as 'Lamkin' by allowing for the possibility of subtly differing emotional approaches. Seems to me that it would inevitably involve compromise, and I suspect that I would find that difficult on a personal level!

But perhaps it brings a ballad more immediately to an audience not familiar with long story songs?

Are there any 'Catters out there who have more relevant experience, please?
