Too bad 'guest' posted with no ID. All in all I've learned a great deal in the few months I've been posting here on the Mudcat. Been scalded a couple of times, but never without it being deserved. Have gained much info about instruments of all types. Have had my grammar and spelling corrected(OUCH!). Have researched songs and artists to which I or others have been directed. Some of them are now in my 'Favorites' list and I visit them often. Read with interest one 'guest' being schooled on the influence of Lonnie Donegan. 'Earthquakes anyone?'... Went to some websites and learned about the Mississippi River Basin fault line of which I'd never heard. Had nothing to do with music, but it sure was interesting. Have read dozens more threads than those to which I've posted and have never failed to be impressed with the sense of patience and community other guests besides me have received.
