MAV - tell us: What brings you to the Mudcat Cafe? What are your musical interests? Inquiring minds want to know. My suspicion is that the only reason you're here is because you enjoy going into political battle with a group of people you suspect are mostly from the leftish persuasion (of which, BTW, I'm not). You are free to do so, I'm free to ignore the political threads, but I think it's completely inapropriate for you to use this sight if that is your ONLY purpose here. (as if that'll persuade you not to - but I'm getting my two cents worth in here just the same) Again, though, if you do have folk/trad/blues musical interests and want to share them, or ask for info, you've got a great resource at the MC.-chanteyranger
