    A modern person travels back in time. We find numerous journals of nobles and peasants alike describing this incredible music, with proof of what it looks like on paper. Modern historians then realize this was incredible memery at work. It turns out that the time traveler, out of sheer boredom, translated modern music into medieval versions and was known across all of Europe as the greatest musician ever.

With a shoddy bed awaiting your arrival upstairs, a pint of the town's finest lager requested, you hear the lads in the corner start playing their music, and you remember that time somebody once told you...
