Did you know that Show of Hands 'Country Life' has recently been put forward as a suggestion for the new CD collaboration being put together by Amnesty International Diane?

No?.....Gosh...you ARE behind the times aren't you!

And no, it wasn't me that put it forward, it was someone in America, who came over to my Myspace page to tell me all about it.

Kat's right, you take snippets of what people say and bend them to fit your purpose. You are not the only person in the world who cares you know, although you seem hellbent on trying to convince everyone that's the case.

And as to posting links, I'll do as I please thanks very much, so I'd suggest you keep your dictatorial attitude to yourself, even though you may regard such an attitude as fitting in this thread.

This is a thread about Banda Celtamericana, so why shouldn't there be easy links to them? I've not noticed you bemoaning the links to Eliza Carthy in her thread, or to any other musicians, subjects, that you are interested in.

>>>It's a weak attempt in very poor taste to ridicule those who DO 'give a toss' about Chilean music and what befell its exponents in 1973.<<<

Is it? I didn't read it as that, neither did Kat.

For someone who abhors dictators as you so claim, you at times so often seem to emulate some of their attitudes that only THEY know what is right and wrong, what people mean or don't mean etc..and you deal out your punishment accordingly...

I'd suggest now, if you so chooose, that you go and brush up on the new Amnesty International CD, instead of coming in here, upsetting folk and ruining a perfectly decent thread with your, in my opinion, verbal abuse.

Thanks ever so much...
