I must extend my sincerest thanks to ye olde SCA. I once went to a
Renaissance "Faire" with a fellow modern musician (it was his
suggestion). He said, "I'll bet you're happy. This is one place you'll
see plenty of lutes in action." I wagered him a very hefty sum that we
would not see or hear any lutes there. It was a most profitable day for
me. Thanks again, SCA!

. . . Many (certainly not all) somehow believing that assuming a bad
cockney accent; whacking each other with wooden weapons while feigning
the inability to use struck limbs; and listening to modern Irish,
Scottish, or English folk songs strummed by steel-strung acoustic
instruments somehow relates to late-medieval/early-renaissance life.
If that's your thing, go for it. Myself, I kinda prefer music.

For those who don't speak American, and don't know American mores:
SCA is the Society for Creative Anachronism, and it has nothing to do
with NYSCA, which is the New York State Council on the Arts.
The latter is a venerable institution that funds arts here, and the
former is group of uncultured boors in silly costumes who managed to
completely destroy the NY Medieval Festival at Cloisters.
