Man, folks will argue the damnest things.

Our band site has the music start. It is a strong cut that grabs you with a heavy bodhran beat. We did it because we thought it the right cut to get your attention. Reading the comments on this page has given me pause, but really only one of them. Marketing sense to the customer tells me that dialup is becoming pretty scarce and the larger audience has broadband, so that is not a concern. I can't ignore the numbers. But Deb Cowan's comment, to me as a working musician, is the one that got my attention. I have great respect for her as a pro, because I watch how she markets her product. I know she is in constant contact with Festival folks. Her comment, in my opinion, is the one that makes me think. Thanks, Deb.

All the best,

Mick
