Hi Doug. At first I thought this thread was addressed to you PERSONALLY!! Then I realized the poster meant ALL the oldtimers. For what it's worth though, age may be a state of mind....but a couple of days ago I read a playlist from CIUT (the station where I do my Folk show) and I didn't know or recognize ONE friggin song from their "top forty alternative" playlist. Now THAT can really make you feel like an old timer!

Iggy......thick skin. remember? Mudcat is Communists, Conservatives, Preachers, Atheists, helpful souls and socio-paths. It's people with highly defined double-lives, folks who are the DEFINITION of 'arrested development' (you'll find my picture under that term in the dictionary!) and others so mature and well adjusted, that they change their strings every three weeks, and own Oldsmobiles. I'm sure we've got disgruntled academic folkies who haven't cracked a smile in years, and cheerful helpful ones, who are the life of a party. As I said before, it ain't gonna be what it was, 'cause there's no wall around it, so try to hang in for a bit. By the way, I DO know you, don't I? Were you at Mose's album launch?

Cheers

Rick
