Subject: RE: blue books revisited (Rise Up Singing)
hooray..someone has broken the silence and now I know where to look for the great singers..never thought to check the carports...one thing I have noticed..is they leave the gosh-awful flourescent lights off...that alone does so much to make a late evening session more nice...whenever we suggest turning down the awful lights, leaving enough to navigate by etc..someone will always say the book people need them. Can't they be asked to bring a flashlight? I carry two at all times so I shall loan one out...I am talking about late night sessions mostly at the camps..got another one coming up...take me with you when you sneak out. Actually I am thinking of where could Jon Bartlett and Mudjack sneak out to where they wouldn't be heard for about five miles away they have such powerful voices...

I think we all have to do some sort of balancing act between being hospitable and encouraging to everyone and doing sometimes the opposite actions that will produce the most wonderful music...the two are often incompatible in some situations. Splinter groups are often the answer..
