Subj: Re: [DR-L] Requiems for band
Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2005 10:35:41 -0400

HOld it, Everyone!

I was just trying to make a pun on someone's remark about " being banned
from playing requiems". . . asking if, indeed, there were any requiems
for band.

Sorry. . .it wasn't a very good pun. . . but thanks for the responses
and interest!
