While a forum dedicated to peoples problems probably wouldn't work, being only populated by people with problems, the opportunity to air a concern with a large cross section of folk from around the world is a good thing.
Sometimes we already know the answers to the questions we ask but need a little support and confirmation from others and look to people we have come to know and respect through our common interests here on Mudcat.
I know that there are some who would rather that this forum was kept pure and unsullied from the lives we live outside of music but I think that by listening to each other, sharing our concerns, and occasionally being able to offer help and advice to each other is what makes this two dimensional world become "real" and populated by a community.
I came here for the music and found a whole lot more!
C-flat.
