Where are PPM and Kingston Trio getting $50 a ticket??? Cultural Centers or Casinos??

More power to them if they can get it!!!

M.G. - I know you are just stirring the pot, but I don't think it is fair to make rude insinuations like your last post contained. I know we all think we are comics, but it doesn't always work.

I do agree with you though, it really is unfair to look down at some of these folk groups. I happen to think that the Kingston Trio and Limeliters NEVER got the recognition for what they accomplished and offered to the music scene. While it may have been commercial, at least it had more content than some of the other bubble gum sounds that were occuring at the time.

Unfortunately that PBS special was a piece of crap shot on a minimal budget. The production values really made the groups and music come off as cheesy. They are better than that.
