"Moping Melancholy, and Moonstruck Madness"
For Christmas,1999, Dan and Jenn prepared a soundtrack of our
chronicle as a gift for the players. Their dedication reads:
This CD is dedicated to those who do not exist, Roscoe,
Connor, Thomas West, Alex, Juan, Sam, Ruth, Yateem, Joey, Mallory, Adam,
Jacob, Cedric, Siobhan, Casmir, Aoife, Sir Reginald, Nate, Mira Cross,
Schrevus, Raven, and Heather. If we've forgotten any, many apologies,
there are all close to the heart. Some want to be closer than others...
To our friends, who make all our moping melancholy and
moon-struck madness mostly in jest. We love you and thank you for your
friendship.
The CD follows the history of the chronicle from its inception
until the group's return to Chicago. It matches the events either
lyrically or in mood. It represented a lot of well enjoyed hard work for
which we are all thankful.
You will need the RealAudio
Player to listen to the samples.
