So here I am...(in case anyone happened to wonder), back on Mudcat. Im not sure how this will go-I didnt choose to storm off the way some folks have in the past but I was a little annoyed with some things here, which explains my absence. Still..lots of great people on here so I thought I would say hello for starters and see whats been happening. Might be a false promise but planning on staying, other than this post, above the bs line! So on with the music and to say since my last post 9 months or so ago, I have been living on a steady diet of John Jones, Carolina Chocolate Drops, Tinariwen, and a whole bunch of rock stuff mainly...but still lots of traditional music as well. Anyway...long hello this...hi again all!
