Ron has a great memory---he, if I am correct in this, introduced Ed McCurdy and we were all sitting on the floor at a union hall that was being used for the concert. I introduced myself to him and discussed his radio program on WFDU.

As to Sing Out---I still voraciously read each issue since it gives some great insights into a variety of artists---we also find who our community has lost as well as a brief guide to new recordings (which is of particular interest to radio folks--in addition to the audience that Sing Out attracts.

Newspapers and magazines are having hard times given the ubiquity of varied forms of media but there has to be a place for a "special interest" magazine that does not require using an Ipod, Computer, or some other exotic exlectronic medium to read some things in some more depth than you might find by reading some blurb on a search engine.
