Howdy. Glad you liked the film. Yes, you're quite right - that is a mandolin in the film, not a lute. It was several hundred pounds cheaper! Thanks for your comments. Keep your tights high and your feathers fluffy. Spread the love.

As a Bard here in the states, I think we are a misunderstood party. It's more than a tunic and a few rhymes. You have got to have the soul. You have got to be merry. Half the people who say "Do something with your life" don't know a Lute from a Mandolin. At least I'm not playing HALO for Christ's sake.

[petegoldcomedy]

It's called "Helas Madame" and is available on Cantoris Records (although I put the thumping bassline on myself!)

[ocbountyhunter]

Wankers! LOL

ha!ha! Medieval rappaz. with outraged conservatives condemning furiously and wishy-washy liberals desperate to "relate" Plenty of modern cliches, gritty observational documentary  hippies, etc

[oznocious]

[GinnyisaPrincess]

Amazing. XD I love this so much. "Just say Hey Nonny NO!"

[richy6841]

Our A Level Music Teacher Showed Us This Todayy So We Could Learn About The Type Of Music Minstrels Play

It Was Amazing!!!Comedy Gold!! lol

Made my day =P

[carebr141]

We just watched this in my music history class...hilarious!

[redswordd]

Well met! My god I'm a rennie but am I this bad? lol

[TrejahFae]

"Just Say Hey Nonny Nonny NO!" Thats going to be my new MSN tagline from now on. Genius XD

[idle44]

Just found you and laughed my socks off! Look forward to the Rickmansworth song.

[barnadine]

absolutely fabulous comedy moment. Vital viewing for any -early- musician. Well done Pete!

[baroquejen]

The woman doing the voiceover is the magic ingredient - she was a perfect find. She sounds exactly like the typical UK documentary voiceover person.

[1987simple]

Hey was some of this shot in Reading and Coley. oh yea Nice vid.

[petegoldcomedy]

@1987simple . Yes, shot in Reading town centre most of it, much to the bewilderment of the townsfolk.

[LawnboyPFS]

thats a round back mandolin

[petegoldcomedy]

Well spotted. It was considerably cheaper and more practical than a lute!

[RockMeAmadeus1756]

My music history professor played this at the end of last semester before we took our early music final. It was awesome.

[petegoldcomedy]

Thanks RockMeAmadeus1756.

I can't think of a more flattering screening than that.

Please pass on my regards to your music history professor!

[toomanymonkeys]

Genius.

[BethDiane]

Would that this 'social problem" were more widespread! Kudos ;)

[fool1shmortal]

I agree. In America, we have people who can dress like cowboys (except for the chaps) and even sing country music (folk country, the most). I like some country, but I like Renaissance Festival/Faire music more.

[tomski3]

Bloody hell I thought that was real at first.

[creativitycorner]

very very funny!!!!!!!

how did you make the movie? it looks so profi!

[petegoldcomedy]

Thanks creativitycorner.

We made it one hot weekend in Reading, Berks, with a small home video camera, and edited it over a couple of weeks with iMovie.

[moviestar11]

LOL @ "Get Your Lute!"

[Werthwhile]

Brilliant. Delivered with all the serious tone of a documentary on goth kids, punk rock kids, alt-rock kids, etc. The woman who does the voiceover has the perfect tone about the whole thing. Wonderful.

[belnost]

Absolutely priceless. The best laugh I've had in ages.

[lynxx2]

Hey, some of my best friends are minstrels...

[richpee]

That was dandy.

[docrosko]

I know all about the need to dress up and play the lute in public. Sometimes I have the overwhelming urge to do it and sometimes I don't. I guess you could say I have a minstrel cycle, but it is irregular.

[petegoldcomedy]

That is brilliant. Cheers.

[lankyfish42]

"they did not make it clear!"

*dies*

thank you for alerting the public of the growing minstrel problem.

[jacknotearnest]

Very funny

[ClusterFunker]

i too am a minstrel

[Tedelesti]

LOL

[Chishannicon]

This video rules.
