What started as a pleasant thread, has become a virtual battlefield.

Personally, I love the folk world, the nice folkies and tend to stay

clear of those who have an axe to grind, of which there appear to be

several on this thread. Most folkies, enjoy the participation in the

music and the feeling of well being which follows an excellent

session or festival. Friends made, in most cases, remain friends for

life. That I believe, was the whole point of this thread.
