Great thread.......

Rick makes the point that folkies are more tolerant and I think that's true....possibly because we all know somewhere down deep, that some of the "Pop of the Day" may eventually enter the genre.

Joe, you are at your most eloquent and best.....forget about the "Whitehead Guy"...I'll fend him off for you if needed...but your points are well taken and well phrased.

Lamarca, I agree with Joe...You said it well.

In relation to your comments about the Romans and Rick's earlier ones about who fills arenas and who/what doesn't........................ I've often thought that were I to go back to school for a more advanced degree (WHY I would do this, I have no idea) that an interesting thesis topic would be the parallel courses and popularity of "Big Time TV Wrestling" and "Big Time TV Evangelism." I dunno'.........perhaps they have the same audience.
