Thread Name: BS: Dates worth singing about. . .
Subject: RE: BS: Dates worth singing about. . .
Amos--It wasn't that song, but I think it may have been episode 30 or 31. I remembered it because MAx talked about how sometimes, being a man, it made him feel bad or something listening to a song that is an example of the bad ways men treat women, expecting sex all the time and stuff. . . Maybe I should just watch the episode again--I don't remember if he said the name of the song or not--I probably just don't remember. . .

I will never understand why people always seem to respond most to threads that they don't agree with. Please forgive me if I'm wrong, but this seems like it would hurt the Mudcat more than any non-music-related BS ever could. I think the constant flaming is what turns me off most about the Mudcat, but then I think of the people who are kind and helpful and that have made my experience here enjoyable.

Old Member--I started coming here because I'm young (17) and I want to LEARN more about folk music. Believe me, I at least read all of the music-related threads, but if I have nothing to contribute, I don't feel the need to put in a useless post. I would rather just learn from everyone here, and I don't intend to offend anyone by this thread. I noticed however, that the thread on "cars to avoid" hasn't recieved the negative response that this thread has even though it is far less music related than this. Realise that I did ask about a song in my original post and that the thread was clearly labeled BS--it was not intended to be strictly music-related. Also, I haven't been here very long, and I am a learning musician and songwriter. I do play clarinet and write songs, so I am not wholey without musical background, but I don't have my computer set up for Hearme, so unfortunately I can't take part in that, however much I would like to. Why do act like the privelege to post to the forum should be restricted to only those who are in your opinion talented or have made major contributions (money or music)? In that case no new people would ever come here. . . Are we just not welcome?

Peace--Keli
