I remember an episode of Fantasy Island where someone faked his (her?) own death in order to find out what his friends and family really thought about him. He attended the funeral in disguise to eavesdrop on the impromptu reviews of his ex-life.
I feel the same way about reporting that a couple people on the everythingdulcimer.com discussion board have checked out my song, Ode to Soup. The reviews thus far are somewhat mixed — too much guitar, not enough dulcimer, not very soup-like. I guess it wouldn’t be a big hit at the Ren Faire (nor the Campbell’s office party).
But I’m grateful for the attention. Special thanks to Marcy (a real dulcimer player) for the nice words and traffic.
