- Thanks! I don't know anything about music theory, but unfortunately the Rokbeigalm are at a bit too low of a technological level to have brass instruments :) . As i said (sort of) on Conculture, if there were to be any musical accompaniment it would probably have to be drums, conch-shells, animal horns, and/or wooden flutes of various kinds.

- Breeders' "Cannonball"? I guess i'm going to have to go looking for that one now... :)

- Nope, that wasn't mine... although i think i downloaded it and still have it around somewhere. If i remember correctly, it's Pablo Flores's orc/goblin(?) language. I don't think i'll ever try singing in my goblin language, Gabwe. Speaking in continuous creaky voice is hard enough, i'm not going to try singing in it :P . -Stephen (Steg) "Beornings speak with a Lithuanian accent!"
