Andy Skelton entertained us all at WordCamp with a couple of songs, this was the second, called “Deserve”. Unfortunately, the mic is a little too hot and it caused a little distortion. Even more unfortunate, the first song Andy played was basically unusable because the mic was way too hot.

This was the last one hour session, entitled Developer Duke-out, from the WordCamp 2007 conference conducted by Matt Mullenweg and featuring Mark Jaquith, Donncha O Caoimh, Michael Adams and Andy Skelton.
