I must agree, I am only 16th level and I only Bellow when soloing, otherwise
its Anthem, Hymn, and hopefully barring lag, Chords or Rhythyms.

hehe one of the bards I saw doing this was 34th, they should know better.
It is easy to tell they are only bellowing since the bellow messages are
very close together. And the standard combat lined I use is available to a
Bard of only 25 songs. Even at 25th level where psalm only gives a 4 pt
damage shield it is still much more effective then a bellow in the over all
damage scheme. It does seem the the High keep basement is immune to the
Z-axis bug, as I have used melodic binding in a two bard party in both the
warrior and raider room :)
