Now then......a very random question......
Do any of you know any American Rounds (as in start singing - then another group starts...etc)
Like Frere Jacques or London's Burning, or row row row your boat...
I need it for school..... Very Happy

I am Thor.....what did you sing when you were little in class? I take it you are a proper American, and grew up there...or maybe you are not and just moved there on a whim....perhaps you are a viking by birth too...?

Proper American, with a little samurai blood thrown in there. The only time I sang in class was when it was someones birthday and the whole class sang

Drumming = insanity (well known fact)

But you must have sung things when you were 6, surely......

Let's see...age 6....I spent most of my time playing street hockey or fighting with my two older brothers in which case we beat the shit outta each other. Ah, good times, good times.

We drummers are not insane, just have a little AD....oooh, shiny

hhhmmmmmm........this lack of singing disturbs me somewhat......I thought all children sang at school....we do in this country......no wonder no one can answer my question re rounds.....or maybe it's because no one else is here and you just play the drums and street hockey...although perhaps not simultaneously.....

And the country you are from would be....?

Subject: Re: Random Question Sat Feb 14, 2009 3:36 pm
