Not a problem and sorry I am sometimes far too blunt Adon. ;)

There were many times when I faced very frustrating things with songs or
skills we have for our class, but unlike other classes, what I've found
is with the bard class everything gets better as you level. Songs that
are totally useless or are too weak at the level you get them can be
utterly devastating in the 30s and 40s. Also, once you get tracking at
L35, let me tell you folks, we got the last laugh on any other class.
Sure it would have been nice to have tracking at a lower level, but in
the 40-50 range, a bard is powerful enough to solo many rare spawns, and
you can track them down [fingers her Pegasus Feather Cloak off Quillmane
;)]!

When I was L8, I was terribly frustrated with being a bard, complete
with my patchwork leather and storebought shield and storebought
longsword. I then heard of a new bard mailing list, that gave me alot of
helpful tips and explained many things I didn't understand. It explained
we could twists songs, and how to set up a hot key bank to make
switching to instrument much more painless. The list was eqbards. ;P

I was off the list for a couple months while moving, sorry to make a
stir with coming back! However, it's my goal to help share some of the
great tricks I've learned through my bizarre and amusing travels, just
as so long ago someone explained how we could play more than 1 song at a
time. :)
