Whenever I refer someone to MUDCAT, I always encourage them to check out the "WHY WE SING" thread. Reading it over again today, makes me want to drop everything, pick up my guitar and sing a few right now! If I didn't have laryngitis, I wouldn't be able to sing anyway, for the lump in my throat.Thanks for your post Stephen. There is much wisdom there. And keep singing. I do believe she's hearing you. KT
