I'm with you, Frug.(Welcome to the party, BTW).
I joined the 'Cat because of my folk-music and -lore interests, but I found friends that had a similar sense of humor to mine. Then I read posts from folks who wanted to share a joy, or who needed a word of encouragement; something that friends share with each other (people who share interests and like each other = friends). Then I needed a kind word, and got it. But the music and folklore are the main things that hold the place together. I wish there were more questions to answer, but I haven't got any questions to post right now. Anybody wishing that there were more muic questions should find some questions to post!
