Subject: We won with Henry Martin! From Adam
I want to let everyone know that helped me and gave me information about the song Henry Martin that my team won first place at our tournement yesterday. We also won the DaVinci award which is the highest award in Destination Imagination because the judges thought it was gutsy that 5 boys would sing a whole ballad. They liked the way I played my violin because every time I sung I plucked the tune like a guitar. They thought the beheading scene was really funny. They liked our kilts which we made by dying old sheets red and stencil painting the Cameron pattern in green. Our coach didnt think we had a chance of winning because our team is fourth and fifth graders who had to compete with 6th-8th graders. I think we were the only team who used music as the work of art. I really wwnt to thank Deckman because he is in a way in the skit. The last thing I said is "I would like to give a quote from deckman from the mudcat cafe. One of the most wonderful things about folk music are the things left unsaid. By leaving alot of the details out The author requires you the listener to fill in the spaces. This gives the listener free reign of imagination."Thanks to deckman and everyone that gave me help. We will be going to the state tournement April 21. We are excited!
