The Music of the
Black Adders
- The victrola is warmed up and playing our favorites.
Relax and enjoy the melodious tunes that helps us forget the carnage in the skies, only to
turn to the carnage to be found under the pool table.
Fruitbat's Moment
- The scene: Former BA member Fruitbat has
been shot down. He is standing in No Man's Land, his aircraft burning. He
looks into the setting sun, shaking his fist, shouting, "As God is my witness, I will
never fly a Camel again!"
- Tink & Daze
Cut a Rug
- The lovely Tinkerbelle and her husband Daze
take to the dance floor in the Pub and give the rest of the Black Adders a lesson in music
and dance that won't be popular for about 15 years after the Great War.
- KenP Mellows
Out
- KenP is one of the Black Adders' more
focused and intent pilots. He is ready to jump into any foray with all the vigor and
energy that he can muster. But when he is back at base, this is what he turns to in
his moments of introspection and solitude.
- Dart to the
Rescue!
- Dart, our resident southerner, is always
willing to come to the aid of anyone in trouble. Maybe it is a Black Adder bomber
being pounced by enemy fighters. Dart hops into his trusty crate
and zooms off to lend assistance to his squadron mate with indigenous music to spur him
on.
- WingNut's Theme
- The alert has sounded and the BA are off on another
mission. Most of the squad staggers out into the predawn, half asleep and half
dressed. Not WingNut. His orderly has him properly attired in
his impeccably tailor flying togs, his silk scarf flying in the gentle breeze, his face
golden in the light of the rising sun.
- What? Me
Worry?
- According to Chevelle, the glass isn't
half full and it isn't half empty. It's twice as big as it needs to be. On
long bombing missions he has been known to conserve fuel by landing behind enemy lines and
relax in the cockpit by reading the Policeman's Gazette until it's time to
attack! This is a pilot that always looks on the bright side!
