Thread Name: Are Blues Players Undervalued by Society
Subject: BS: Are Blues Players Undervalued by Society
Well, okay, just about anyone can be a mother... Right???... And they sho nuff be undervalued so this ain't one of them who-is-the-most-undervalued threads but...

...geeze...

I mean, lets get real here... Folks ask you what kinda music you play and you say "blues" and they say "Yeah, I like that bluegrass" and then you say, "No, I play the blues' and then they say "Yeah, I like that bluegrass"... Huh???

And unless yer at a blues festival where folks come to here, ahhhhh, the blues then at all the other festivals they stick the blues players at the worst times... Like me having to compete with Utah Phillips last year at the Getaway...

Yeah, blues players get no respect... And if they happen to be mothers then they get a double dose of no respect...

Grrrrrrrr....

p.s. BTW, if ya' wanta test gravity just start a blues thread here in Mudville and watch that sucker head south... Yup... Off the bottom of the page before you can refresh it... I mean, G.O.N.E., gone... What's that all about???
