ghobe'. It makes perfect sense. I've been trying to find music to use with
my costume presentations.

And wouldn't you know that was one of the pieces. I find the "Heavy Classix"
and "Power Classics" collections help the mood. But my favorite mood peice
is Carl Orff's "Carmina Burana." (Jerk of a guy, but great music.) The
part everybody uses is 'O Fortuna.' But listen through the whole thing. And
read the lyrics... gnashing teeth, maidens wanting to give up their virtue,
great stuff.
