Netbook of bard songs
UPDATE: This Page is now superseded by this page, but I'm retaining this for archival purposes
Despite not being a filker, nor indeed exceptionally musical, I have been collecting gaming music from across the net for ages. I hope to publish my anthology as the third edition of the netbook of bardsongs (the first two were by Jeff Gostin, but, despite having an email address, he seems to be uncontactable). To do this in the most pleasant manner possible, I wish to get permission from all the people who have written the songs, before using their material
The reason I'm posting this is in the hope that the author of an unattributed song surfs by or searches for their song on a search engine and this page comes up, the will contact me (hopefully giving permission for use)
my email address is currently
borg<at>kvetch<dot>silentflame<dot>com
(don't rely on it working for ever, but if the address is still up
on this page I am still using it)
The songs and authors are as follows (as contained in my DRAFT
(and it is exceptionally draft) letter of application for use):
I am currently compiling a netbook of gaming songs (the netbook
of bard
songs (3rd edition)) on a completely non-profit basis
I have come across one or more songs attributed to you and would
like your permission to publish it/them in electronic form.
The full list of songs with authors follows. If you notice any
errors, want your email address removed, or real names/aliases
adjusted, or websites added please could you note this in an email to me. This list
also includes unattributed songs/songs by authors with no email
address, so, if you know how to contact (or are) the author of
one of those songs please inform me.
If of course you have any more gaming songs you want to add to the
collection, please send them along.

NB Due to the number of requests I have sent out, if I do not get
a reply within in one month I will use the song, noting that I
have been unable to contact the author (My rationale is that if
you don't want your songs distributed, you would not place them
on the net). Therefore, If you do not want the song as part of
the netbook, or wish to impose strictures upon it's dissemination, it is important to email me.
If at some later date you want you songs removed, I will accede to that request
as quickly as possible
If you want to add a note to the netbook, asserting your
particular conditions of use, please append a copy of the
conditions to your reply.
Thank you for you time,
Kvetch the Seer (Peter Mabbott)
