What do I want?

Just a little variety for a little while longer.

I don't doubt that the world is moving towards globalization and homogenization. I certainly can't stop it. But I can and will mourn the passing of the musical diversity that I have gotten so much pleasure from for so many years.

Not meaning to get too melodramatic, but losing a musical tradition is like losing a species.

I suppose that if you like Big Macs and such (I do) you might not think it a big deal when the arrival of the chains signals the disappearance of local restaurants.

When one can no longer hear a clear difference between a Pike County, Kentucky, fiddler and a Clay County, West Virginia, fiddler the world has been dimished.
