You're right to doubt the sense in getting involved in this one, Brian. The motive of the original poster was ulterior. Mr Llig over on the Session is famed for saying very provocative things at times, abrasive even, and "Diplomacy" is not his middle name. But his provocations frequently bring about fertile discussion, as you'd see if you read that thread over there which contains his remark. http://www.thesession.org/discussions/display/29539 On the whole he is a pretty sound fellow (and a damn good fiddle player to boot, I hear). Yah Boo on this topic is wide of the mark, I think. If you do happen to read the thread it may or may not be useful to know that our Dick is The Kerryman over there (though that could change in a heartbeat), even though he's denied it once.

Remember The Tree Inn Folk Club, Brian? I won one of your vinyl albums in the raffle! :-)
