The terror within my heart is that the "DT" will turn-into another "AOL chat room."

There was NOTHING like the DT!!!

The emphasis once was on FOLK MUSIC! (side correlaries which helped to better post the "tradtion" such as HTML were MOST welcome.....and slings and arrows quickly were rebuffed. )

However, there has been a feeling that this is a "Gig From Hell," one inwhich you KNOW the group is performing perhaps their "all-time-best-performance" and the audience of plebians continues to gabble and garble and gossip, and complain about the "noise of the music" when the MUSIC WAS HERE FIRST!!!... the masses are unaware of that they are being presented with history, reality, tradition, lore, mystic-revelations, understanding, quandries, and QUALITY and they continue to babble.

It is WONDERFUL this week to see an up-rising of Music-Related-Threads since the "challenge" from the cackelers was issued.....however, how long before the "open gates" digress to the level of "the masses" and we digress to level of "The Star - Globe - Enquirer and Jerry Springer?"

The emphasis of the DT was "FOLK MUSIC" not petty affairs and gossip.
Susan and dick.... PLEASE search out another host!!! Before the DT dies....a regretful death.
