@ossobuffo@deacon.social I feel like I should add another treble line to make it a rare 5-parter like Fish Pond in the Christian Harmony! It's such a sweet tune. I'll send whatever my group comes up with once we do violence to it with repeats and fermata

@ossobuffo@deacon.social ignore that, this one is engraved much nicer 😅

@ossobuffo@deacon.social An unsourced change by a user who left no comment, Nov 2023. "Traditional" is probably better 🙃

For God's sake, someone get these people some Tums #Monsterdon

Oh but lab coat science man correctly said on Long Island, good on ya #Monsterdon

So far, Mo's accent has included:

• "Warshington"
• non-rhotic scenes, but also "maRRRket"
• diphthong and monophthong price vowels ("maanin'" for "mining")

Maybe he was a military kid, moved around a lot. Spent some time in Jackson, MS, but his family's from the tidewater region #Monsterdon

Halo Top moms #Monsterdon

I feel like I need to watch this movie with a big glass of Metamucil and rice cakes #Monsterdon

Mo is chosen family #monsterdon

So they frack sentient melted Halo Top® from a quarry in Georgia, mix it, extrude it, get freaky with it, and, ultimately, submit to it. I feel like The Stuff has avocado oil in it. #Monsterdon

The Stuff burns clean, eh? #monsterdon

This is rural Georgia. Where are the fundamentalists? This is a prime Anti-Christ candidate. Are people just not going to church? What does your pastor say about The Stuff?? #Monsterdon

"America never lost a war." "What about 'Nam, sir?" "We lost that war at home." nvm love this kid #Monsterdon

Radicalizing your uncle against the surveillance state #Monsterdon

@ossobuffo@deacon.social I love it! I just set it to actual shapes to sing next month. Maybe I'll sneak a recording!

@ossobuffo@deacon.social Oh thanks. Wikipedia cited him as that translator. I'll make a couple more changes then get a PDF. My shape note group insists there be a fermata on "tombs"!

@ossobuffo@deacon.social Sacred Harp nominal pitch is usually for ease of fitting on the staff. I expect we'll probably key it around F#-G. Paschal troparion lists this particular version as Morosan's. I reworked the Alto to sound a bit more shape note-y and added a repeat. The recording had it about a 2/2 tempo, so I sped it up with 4/4 (a la William Billings' notation). I can't wait to sing this in the group! PDF

There's so much The Room-esque non-sequitur dialog with Mo, I'm in love #Monsterdon
