Dear memyself..I am so tired of attitudes like yours. That post adolesent cynicism that is entirely without basis is such a huge bore. I do not know where in Canada you live, but where I live there are many fine folk and traditional artists who have been recoginized both by their peers and by the public. Your rather petty and ill-informed slant is a great disservice to all Canadian musicians of any genre and I do believe that a good many people are tired of that sort of trite, smug, crap.
