Subject: RE: Review: What Mudcat Performers have U heard?
The list of Mudcatters that I have had the honor of hearing in person is too long for my ageing brain to wrap itself around. I know that I will miss many of you. This comes from running a folk concert series for 27 years, as well as performing at many festivals, where I heard countless musicians. And thanks to mudcat, I've added a few British Aisles folks to my memories:

Leadfingers
Sussex Carole
Colin Kemp
Noreen
Rick Fielding
Art Thieme (probably more than everyone else on my list, combined)
Bob Coltman
Jim Hickam
Dave Parra
Cathy Barton
Jean Ritchie
Roy Harris
Kendall Morse
jimmyt and his wife Jayne
Sandy & Caroline Paton
DWditty
Barbara Shaw and her husband Frank


Maybe I'd better stop while I'm behind. And then there are all those whom I'm not positive are mudcatters, like Jim and Cindy Bean, Karen Kobela and many musicians who I've shared workshops with at Nomad, over the years. Add to that some of the DC folks, many of whom are probably mudcatters, and it makes me think that maybe we need another thread (which we've probably already done): "Which Mudcatter would you most like to hear, but haven't, yet?"
