I would like to see more music threads. So I read the music threads that are available and I start some other music threads myself. If I focus more time and energy I spend on the Mudcat in the music topics, then I can say I have contributed as best I could to see more music topics thrive. My feelings about this place have change somewhat. Before I was just thrilled to find this folk community and I loved all aspects of this forum. I still do to a certain extent. I have met wonderful people here and built some close friendships. But as I realize how much I do want to become a better musician, I am beginning to appreciate the music threads on a level I never could before when I was an itsy bitsy little neophyte. If the music threads and the knowledgable people who contribute to them are that important to me, than I have to do my best to participate in making that aspect of the Mudcat prosper.
