I wandered in here about 2+ years ago looking for lyrics to a song from the Gay Nineties. I found the song and more than a few others who enjoyed the same music. Since then I have met hundreds of people who love folk music and love to share what they know both in 3D and cyberspace.

To answer A Nonnie Nonnie's question - I would still stay although I am not a veteran. And I appreciate your asking. I often feel as if I take much more than I give here. In the past two years I haved learned countless numbers of "new" songs, some from the DT, most from other members and their associates.

When the BS wears thin, I spend less time here for a while. I don't doubt that my BS has caused a few to use the same coping method. I too visit the old threads, sometimes to get a dose of "ancient history" from the likes of Don Firth and Deckman, sometimes to re-read a bit of technical information that meant nothing to me a year ago. Every day my life is filled with music that I found on or through Mudcat. Yes, if I wandered in today, I would be hooked.
