Virginia Reel

So anyway, my aunt calls me at 1pm on a saturday afternoon.

Aunt : "Jon, I need music for the Virginia Reel. I'm not very good at finding these kind of things on the Internet."

Me : "What's the name of the song that you want me to find?*"


Aunt : "It's just called the Virginia Reel la.. That's the name of the song."

* The virginia reel is a dance, not a song in itself.

How do you tell your aunt that people who upload stuff to the internet generally just don't listen to this kind of music?


Anyhow, the story has a happy ending... 2 hours of searching through porn and malware and goodness finally yielded... John Hartford - Old Virginia Reel. Bless his soul, whoever it was that uploaded it.
