Well 'Mike E' is now moderated (I've been kind). There shouldn't be anymore of
those links.

A polite notice: If there is anyone here who isn't a Gil/Buck fan and just wants
to 'spam' the group then leave now and save me the trouble of removing you.
Thank you.

I have spoken! LOL :)

I initially found this on youtube and then tracked it down the below site.  For those that have never attended a convention or missed this one, here is how the panels are at DragonCon, for the most part.

from pieces that Stu conducted earlier in the evening, ie, the pieces of music
from #5 and $6 above. It was very well done, and earned the 2nd standing ovation

This was also a World Premier for this piece of music.
