I dunno Art. If someone came to my door enquiring about my salvation, WITH a fiddle, I'd be tempted to invite them in, put on a pot of coffee, and get out the guitar. After a few tunes, I'd quickly start rummaging through my thousands of records, and begin boring them senseless with excerpts from Gid Tanner, Eck Robertson, Grant Rogers, and Bob Wills...Complete with MY theories on regional styles. I'd ask them what they though about "the Devil's interval" and whether Satan preferred 'long bowing' or 'shuffle'.

Now of course, if they appeared on my doorstep with an accordion....I'd hide till they went away!
