Greg & Chip,

AOTMSOTTC is my "clever" attempt at a homemade acronym for "American old time music scene of the 20th century."

It's in the second line of my post dated Date: 29-Apr-02 - 10:00 AM.

Oh well, I thought it was cute.

Greg,

Well there you have it. There is obviously a significant demand for jigs in England that is not found in the states. Are there English frailing/clawhammering banjo players who help provide live music to accompany the country dancers when they jig?
