Well, thanks for all the good wishes, unfortunately it looks so far as though nobody was able to get it on the internet. A couple of people in the UK phoned in the morning to say they couldn't get the audio, although they were able to get on to the site so I think something was wrong at the station's end.

In the event everything went off OK apart from one massive screw-up where I thought Elizabeth was going to start another part of a medley, so I hit a huge A chord but she continued playing in G. However I spoke afterwards to a couple of people who said they didn't even notice, but maybe they were just being kind.

Murray, tell your friend Elizabeth, that she's not the only one.

Kendra MacGillivray was in a car crash several years ago. It was pretty severe, and she was unable to work for almost a year. As a dancer as well, her back was important. She seems to be fully recovered, but still encounters problems with her back, luckily not severe enough to keep her from performing.

I'll try to listen in as well--though the streaming audio tends to break up these days on my dial up connection--I hope that you are plenty opinionated, as that is half the fun--

Thanks Spaw, I appreciate your good wishes, I didn't have time to check the link as the 'Cat was temporarily down !

Glad to know it works, now that I know how to do clickies I will be searching for a suitable site to post as www.catspaw49.com ....:-)

Well Murray, the link works anyway!!! I will make it a special point to be here and will be listening (as opposed to sitting here goofing off and surfing the porn sites).

Good Luck....or not, if you're superstitious.........

For those of you who might be sitting at their computers around 2.00 pm EST this Saturday, 11th August,(7.00pm UK time) you might like to click on this link WLRN Live Radio to listen to an opinionated old Scottish git playing traditional music live with a lovely young fiddler from New York.

My fiddler, Elizabeth Crisfield and I play as a duo under the name "Rivergrass" and this radio interview/performance, on South Florida's WLRN Folk and Acoustic show (which begins at 1.00pm, but we are not on until 2.00) marks our comeback since Elizabeth broke her back and wrist in a horrific fall in early April, from which she has thankfully made a miraculous and almost full recovery.

We will probably be on for twenty minutes or so, play maybe three-four songs/tunes, chat some with the estimable Michael Stock who hosts the show, and generally have a good time.

So if anyone would like to click on, we'd love to have you listen. I discovered yesterday that it is possible to have Mudcat and the radio on at the same time, but I guess you all knew that anyway.

Just in case I have screwed up the link above, which should appear as a blue clicky (my first ever, btw) the URL of the station is www.wlrn.org, and you just click the appropriate buttons from there. ( Don't type wrln.org, or you will find yourself in the Women's Rural Learning Network run by Suffolk County Council. )
