Bad Boy, No Biscuit

Sorry, it had to be done, *smirk*

# Posted on April 22nd 2004 by Dow

Dedicated to...

...Zina, Jack and Yamadasan!

# Posted on April 22nd 2004 by Dow

Deliberate references to The Temperance, The Virginia, Over The Moor To Maggie and and and...

# Posted on April 22nd 2004 by Dow

...The Earl's Chair, and and and...

LOL -- Mark, you horrible little man...LOL I'll never be able to learn this, it's too much like everything else. *grin*

Does this tune sound like Craig's Pipes? Another title is The Plagiarist, isn't it?

(Nihuedebiru!)

I'm a bad composer, so can't write a nice tune for you, Mark san. But I transcribed Harry Bradley's version of The Walls of Liscarrol in the comment space recently. I give it to you. I'm sure you'll like it.

hehehe...Touche, Yamada-san!

# Posted on April 23rd 2004 by Zina Lee

Yamadasan, thanks for the alternative title - I've added it formally!

# Posted on April 23rd 2004 by Dow

So..., it's already recorded by a Scottish piper.

# Posted on April 23rd 2004 by slainte

Doesn't matter, we can plagiarise the title too!

# Posted on April 23rd 2004 by Dow

I think a better title would be The Plagiarist II, then.

# Posted on April 23rd 2004 by Zina Lee

At least "Bad Boy, No Biscuit" is not likely to have been recorded!

# Posted on April 23rd 2004 by Dow

Oh, but you ought to put a copyright on it, Mark. *smirk*

# Posted on April 23rd 2004 by Zina Lee

Sounds like...

I'm not learning this one... it sounds too much like Out on the Ocean.

# Posted on April 23rd 2004 by Phantom Button

I was wondering if anyone would notice, Jack :¬) Hey look Zina, Conan made me a nose and I'm showing it off!

# Posted on April 23rd 2004 by Dow

This tune wouldn't go too well with "The cup of tea" then, if there's no biscuit. Still, we could have "The glass of beer" instead. :-)

I Like where John's going with this. : ¬ )

# Posted on April 24th 2004 by Phantom Button

I didn't realise my tune was going to be so popular. It's already been recorded by Tommy Peoples, Frankie Gavin and Matt Molloy amongst others :¬)

# Posted on April 24th 2004 by Dow

Here's a new idea...

Ya did a crackin job turning 'Out on the Ocean' into a reel, Dow... now try making it into a waltz. ;¬)

# Posted on April 24th 2004 by Phantom Button

Why don't you give it a go, Jack? I loved the last tune of yours you posted.

# Posted on April 24th 2004 by Dow

Thanks Dow, but someone already beat me to the waltz version.

Oh Jack, I'm sure you could just plagiarise the B-part as is, and do something with the A-part?!

# Posted on April 24th 2004 by Dow

Out on the Ocean -- the waltz

Brilliant! I am truely humbled. Dow... that's pure feckin genius.
