I've never heard a song about the flood, though have read alot about it. I'm sure they must be out there, and I'd love to learn 'em too.

Which Bruce tune mentions it?

I think there must be a historical society of sorts in Johnston, and they might know of such. I'll check around.

Others will give you more scholarly info. The Johnstown flood, mentioned in a Bruce Springsteen song, and the subject of folk songs I'd like to know about, occurred in Johnstown, Pa, in like the l940's. I'm not sure of this, and am outta info rite now.
