Subject: RE: best thing seen at a folk club
Ahhhhhh - So it isn't all men! Just all men called Dave (except Mr Eyre) I'd feel left out if I was him:-)

Out of interest I don't think I have ever judged anyone by their gender, colour, creed or any other such measure. I like and respect most people from the first and they have to do something pretty serious to loose that respect. I do however notice differences in people. How can anyone help that? The bigger the difference the more noticeable of course. If I was at our folk club for instance and a one-legged, black guitarist turned up how am I supposed to describe her? The Guitarist? There are hundreds of those. The good guitarist? Dozens. The female guitarist? Still in the dozens. If I was to describe her as the black one-legged guitarist would I be accused of racial or ability predjudice? How ludicrous.

Cheers
