Thread Name: Old-time music in a rut?
Subject: RE: BS: Old-time music in a rut?
We agree. I (Chip) don't sing but Tish does. "Old time" music seems to have been narrowed down to just a small slice of what was sung and played in the old times. Dance tunes are fun to play but are only part of the whole. Also, playing styles seem to have been narrowed down as well. I'm thinking of banjo as that's what I play. (What you said, Fortunato). It seems a shame to leave out so much.

Peace,

Chip
