BFP,

Thanks for the compliments.

As I have 'fessed up in several threads, I don't really live in Baltimore, but rather in Westminster, Maryland in Carroll County. A group of friends get together about once a month and have a potluck supper and a sing. We welcome new members especially singers and players of instruments. Our music tastes cover a wide range so the musical selections are diverse, but we sing all of it. We spend time with, but are not limited to, Rise Up Singing (and, yes, I know many of you think it stunts the group. Well, we've been stunted for 15 years, so there!).

Our next "do" is Saturday, June 5. It starts a little earlier than usual (around 2:00 PM) 'cause my youngest son is graduating from High School that night and my ex-wife who lives in Austin, Texas wants to visit with her friends from the Potluck Singing Society while she is in town.

If you are interested in this date or in the future (we con't break for the summer) post me an e-mail. I'm at rwhimler@hotmail.com. I will e-mail you back some phone numbers to contact myself and the host of the next sing.

I just checked the Baltimore Folk Music Society website. They used to have monthly sings, but I don't see those events on the schedule anywhere. You might try a contact person there and see if there are any.

And finally, to all you Country Western Comedians out there, I already know "all my ex's live in Texas."
