Catspaw: I'm very familiar with Berea, and don't blame you for pushing it. Frank Proffitt's son Ronald went there, and after graduating, went on to get a PhD in Physics at Kentucky. We were all extremely proud of him; a wonderful young man. Then, on his way home, right after getting the degree, he was killed in an automobile accident. Heart-breaking!

George and Gerry Armstrong's daughter Jennifer also went there and is now making music and telling stories professionally, working out of the Boston area.

I'm going to forward your info about the Bluegrass Fest to the Brazilian dentist. He'd probably enjoy it, too, even if Bluegrass isn't his first love. It would certainly be an experience in Americana for him.
