Subject: Song : Lament of Captain Placeholder
   Hey Everyone!

It's my pleasure to release a month long endeavour to create something for the people at blizzard and the folks at home enjoying this great game!

Along with my trusty guitar and some assorted instruments i've spent some time creating a little ditty based on our late Captain Placeholder! I'm sure a good bunch of you Alliance players know who im talking about :)

For those who don't, a little backstory--

One day in the realm of Azeroth a tragedy befell the ship that traveled between Auberdine and Menethil, a glich occurred that would come in affect when players attempted to board the ship that ferried players back and forth from the two ports. In the time that was taken to fix said glitch a noble sailor was placed upon the docks to instantly teleport the members of the alliance back and forth freely between the two continents. A very useful feature i must add. But alas, the day the ship sailed once more Captain P was but a memory as he vanished from the dock. Women and children did weep so for his ever helpful hand in the daily lives of all those who passed his way, and so I give to you a Lament to his great doings, a song in hopes that one day he might return, whether it be sitting in the inn at Menethil remenicing the times gone by or perhaps watching out upon the sea to make sure we reach our destination in good health :).

I hope you all enjoy this wonderfully geeky work of music and in closure I ask in earnest that those of you who do enjoy it and have space to help spread it's availability for downloading that you please help host it on alternate sites so that it wont overload a single persons bandwidth. Thankyou to everyone and I hope you enjoy it as much as i did creating it!

Here you go!
