Nice thread, indeed... It made me wonder what I was doing every night, looking for what's up in the Mudcat. I may be the most taciturn of the 'catters because-you-know- my-english-second-language... It's hard to develop a «friendship» when you're always in your dictionnary (needless to say that I didn't read entirely this thread, it would have take me weeks). But I found here something that is strictely impossible in Québec city: people gathered together on the solely base of their love of folk music. Of course, for many of you here, you develop a deeper relationship... but since I can't write too much, I don't have the only thing contact required by the situation - writing. So I'm stuck with the idea that I have to meet you to really enjoy people here. It's nice to chat with people, but I'd prefer to sing with them!

Yours
