Oh man... lucky! If I were you, I'd GOOOOOO! (Go. Go. Go. No, I will not stop bugging you about this haha)

But I can't go by myself! Scary.

Maybe I should.

No, I can't.

But, it's not that hard to just go...what will they do? Make me sing with them? SCARY.

*bites fingernails*

Haha.

WOAH! I had no idea we had this in our tradition!! It sounds like Russian folk music almost. Verrry cool!

aha- see! Okay, Im not crazy... I knew I was onto something. Reminds me of Old Believer singing, to an extent.

yeah! when i first this music (when the movie Cold Mountain first came out) i could have sworn it was Russian folk music.

That's absolutely beautiful. Now I want to see that documentary.

yeah I would too. Unless the local PBS station decides to air it, looks like I may have to shell out if I reach that level of obsession. lol
