For the purpose of Ability Focus, how is Bardic Music broken down as abilities? Would you take Ability Focus (Bardic Music) or Ability Focus (Fascinate)/Ability Focus (Suggestion)?

The Special Attack is Bardic Music, so it would be the subject of ability focus.

Suggestion or Fascinate, since they're distinct special attacks. IMO.

The Bardic Music class ability does say that all the bardic music abilities fall into the bardic music category and each ability references what the bard can do with his bardic music.

This is what I was thinking. I was building a Jester from Dragon Compendium using the elite array and noted the large amount of save DCs present under Jester's Performance. It would seem that ability focus would very nearly be a feat tax for the class.
