Thank you Kiwi, I agree. It seems I also should apologize to the rest of the Mudcatters for allowing myself to be drawn into this silly exercise. So, I apologize to all of you for this useless exchange.

To Jon, I hope you enjoy all the songs you have seen listed. Jump in and begin playing. One idea, if you are somewhat intimidated about beginning with very experienced players, might be to begin your own gathering with people of like interest and experience and invite a few experienced people to sit in now and again. Tell them that it is a gathering of players who are new to it and willing to learn. I would bet they will enjoy it and be eager to come and share the wealth. And Jon, to you especially, please accept my apologies for cluttering up a fine thread with the useless diatribe that you saw above.

Mick
