Subject: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Rick Fielding Date: 05 Jun 01 - 04:08 PM Just figured it was young Ian's turn to bask in some of the Mudcat Folk superstardom and name recognition embarrassment. Sam's had his turn, and of course Bill's just an old fart with a banjo! By the way, let me tell you a little bit about this kid (he's 19) He's got one of the best ears I've heard in years. In the biz, they say as a compliment "he/she's got "Big Ears" (means a player can hear chord changes before they happen) well Ian Stephenson has HUGE EARS. In less than 10 minutes he was playing credibly on the: Appalachian Dulcimer, Dobro, and open tuned (1,5,1,5.) fiddle. He can "hear and play" blues phrasing on the guitar even though he usually plays in other genres. He's sharp as a tack, funny, observant, and should be thoroughly embarrassed by now...but I gotta add, a damn nice guy. What a treat to hear Sam play, and finally meet him in person. Great musician, a gentleman, and like Bill, someone I hope to call "friend" for many years to come. They headed off about two hours ago to see Niagara Falls, and of course I've advised them to visit the "Ripley's Believe It or Not" Museum, where they can witness the "Catspaw Exhibit". It contains the first bar of soap Paw's Mom used, to wash out her son's mouth. Well Pat, my friend, I've sent them off to you in only marginally worse shape than when they arrived here. ENJOY THEM! Damn, I've made some nice friends through Mudcat. Thanks max. P.S. There's a present for you. The choice was either a totally realistic looking rubber dog turd, or what they actually ARE bringing you. Cheers Rick |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Hollowfox Date: 05 Jun 01 - 04:31 PM I wish I'd thought about their route, they could stop at my place for supper. I don't suppose there's a way to reach them now? |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: wysiwyg Date: 05 Jun 01 - 04:36 PM Hey! Are they comin' my way!?? Rick, you have my phone number if they are. ~S~ |
|
Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Naemanson Date: 05 Jun 01 - 04:41 PM I agree with Ickle. If I didn't know them for the wonderful people they are I'd have to hate them. Ian walked into my living room and picked up the guitar that was sitting there. He ran his fingers over the strings and commented that it was an odd tuning (DADGBD for the Stan Rogers tune Giant). He noodled around for the briefest time and then begain playing something fast and Irish on that tuning. That kid has talent oozing out of every pore.

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: catspaw49 Date: 05 Jun 01 - 04:46 PM I think they're spending the night along the way or at Niagra? Is that right Rick? We'll be expecting them tomorrow and anxious to hear wht they thought of the Falls. Several times we have heard just how fine a musician Ian is and when it comes from Rick.....that's one helluva' recommendation. I have missed Bill on two previous trips and I plan on catching up some! And then we'll see about feeding them til they can eat no more......THEN we'll see if Sam can dance and play at the same time!!!!!! Spaw |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: MMario Date: 05 Jun 01 - 04:49 PM they'll enjoy the visit, I'm sure. wysiwyg - as I know from experience - they will head west from the buffalo/niagera region....DRAT! |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Mrs.Duck Date: 05 Jun 01 - 05:03 PM 'spaw it will be a long stay if you're planning to feed Sam until he can eat no more:0) |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Peter T. Date: 05 Jun 01 - 05:20 PM I am no expert, but I watched Ian last night and was similarly staggered. Sam ain't no slouch either. Bill said that Sam's fingers moved up and down the keyboard like little pink maggots. What I want to know is where I can get some of those!!!! And their big concern? What was the drinking age in Canada. Good grief. (if their mother is watching they had milkshakes) yours, Peter T. |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Noreen Date: 05 Jun 01 - 05:42 PM Lovely, Rick! Glad you like our latest exports. Knew you couldn't help it! So Bill will be catching up on some sleep tonight? It's ok for Ian and Sam, dozing whilst navigating on these long drives :0) ...I should have come with you to share the driving... Next reports eagerly awaited. Noreen |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Hollowfox Date: 05 Jun 01 - 05:52 PM Rick & 'Spaw, I'm PMing my phone number to you, just in case they need an emergency number halfway coming or going. |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Rick Fielding Date: 05 Jun 01 - 06:07 PM And just remember Spaw...Bill has eaten NOTHING for the last Twenty seven years. But have that TEA ready! Oops, have the hot water...he brings his own tea....and VERY GOOD TEA IT IS!! Gotta see if it's available in Canada. Often when we have folkie folks stay with us I'm a little concerned about feeding them. Many are vegetarians, or health food buffs.......Not Ian and Sam. Good old High Cholesterol types.....just like Glasgow Heather (who is still IN Glasgow)...I better think of something "bachelor-like" to do quick. Rick |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Sorcha Date: 05 Jun 01 - 06:21 PM NO, no, Rick. Come HERE!! You would have the Challenge of cooking in a kitchen that has the bathroom medicine cabinet on the counter top.........and we know how you love challenges, LOL! (Do you cook with your Dremel?) Mrs. Duck, I think keeping them a "very long time" is the whole point...........sure wish they could get out here. Might find a husband for Kate (lol again!--an arranged marriage.....)and I sure would love to see Bill again. Oh well.Sniffling in my beer here. |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Jeri Date: 05 Jun 01 - 07:11 PM Bill got me hooked on Yorkshire Tea when he was here a couple of years ago. I found a place to buy it here, but the business has since gone out of business. Then Jon Freeman sent me some lovely Assam tea. I never liked tea that much, but I suppose it had something to do with the McTea you get in the US. Rick, Spaw may have really wanted that dog turd! |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Helen Date: 05 Jun 01 - 07:40 PM 'Spaw says: "feeding them til they can eat no more". Give 'em Vegemite, 'Spaw. Some new converts to the cause. Power to the Vegemitarians!! That line of yours reminds me of an old Welsh hymn called Cwm Rhondda/Guide Me Oh Thou Great Jehovah. Here is the first verse:
Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah, The rest of the words and the tune are here at the http://www.cyberhymnal.org/htm/g/u/guideme.htm Now I've got visions of the three starving travellers wandering in the desert and 'Spaw is The Great Jehovah, feeding them. Helen |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Jeri Date: 05 Jun 01 - 09:43 PM From the chat during the radio show, it seems they'll be staying in Niagara Falls overnight, so they won't reach Spawville until tomorrow (Wed) afternoon at least. Hope they don't accidentally visit Alaska first. ;-) |
|
Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: MMario Date: 05 Jun 01 - 09:50 PM I just hope they don't try to go through Zanesville Ohio....city of miniscule and obscure signage. (I added 50 miles and an hour to my trip in Zanesville) |

I though I knew what I was doing
I asked the old man by the river
So I built myself an oaken barrel |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Jeri Date: 05 Jun 01 - 10:26 PM OK, so they're staing in the town of Niagara, and not in Niagara Falls. Picky, picky, picky. I think I have an idea why they never seem to eat. They probably drink so much tea they have to stop at every rest area, and then they stuff themselves at McDonald's, Wendy's and Bob's Big Boy. When they get to wherever the're going, they're full of cheeseburgers and greasy fries. |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: katlaughing Date: 05 Jun 01 - 11:17 PM Helen, neat website and song. What a vision you conjure of Spaw the Redeemer!LMAO! Jenellen, do you have a name for that song?

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: catspaw49 Date: 06 Jun 01 - 08:29 AM Water you say? Well, they're going to get some more here because it's raining......again. Wwe seem to have become the "Rain Capital" as it's rained everyday....25 out of the past 30. Oh well, you can't have everything........and we're just real happy to have the boys for a visit! I'm heading up to Connie's in about an hour and I'll be offline until Friday. Connie has e-mail, but is not on the net. I have the oral surgery thing on Thursday at 6 AM and we're not going to be home until Friday. I'll get an e-mail out for kat to post as an update. They leave for friends of Bill's in PA on Thursday morning and then on to annamil's. We'll be anxiously anticipating hearing more from then and just can't wait til this evening! Spaw |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Naemanson Date: 06 Jun 01 - 09:26 AM Where else have they been rained on? They had one beautiful day here in Maine then the skies clouded up and the rain poured all day Saturday and drizzled all day Sunday. The day of their concert was the worst downfall we've had yet this year. |
|
Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: katlaughing Date: 06 Jun 01 - 04:27 PM No word, yet. Spaw also didn't tell us that Friday is HIS Birthday!! C'mon guys, are ya there, yet? |
|
Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: annamill Date: 06 Jun 01 - 04:39 PM Shufflin' off ta buffalo!! I just hope that doesn't change the way our guys feel about the ole' US. When I was there they had the American Falls turned off. Imagine! That must be one large faucet! Still grand tho. Friday's gettin closer. Love, Annamill |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: windyb99 Date: 06 Jun 01 - 06:16 PM Hi there, it's windyb99 and jellybeam here fresh from the Jug session, everybody sends their best and we all wonder where Ian, Sam & Bill are at the moment! Colin, the sea shanty man sang for his supper ( we bought Tyke Folk Mag from him, and it was brill There will be a sea shanty fest in July in Withernsea, Yorkshire on the 1st. Selby was there and so was Mouldy, Mr & Mrs Duck, Eric the Viking, Badger, Tig & of course Jezebel the Unready. We missed the radio show, but are hoping that it can be put on Mudcat archive, but don't know when. Tat ah... Chris & Geraldine

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: katlaughing Date: 06 Jun 01 - 06:22 PM You haven't missed the radio with Bill, Ian, and Sam. It is next Tuesday. Sounds like you're having fun, anyway. Hi, Badg, Tig et al!! |
|
Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Jeri Date: 06 Jun 01 - 07:21 PM They missed Rick's show, and as far as I know, Max doesn't archive them anymore. I'm looking forward to next week's Mudcat Radio. Hopefully, they'l be playing live. Wonder what Sam's hands will look like on the video. ;-) |
|
Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: mooman Date: 06 Jun 01 - 07:24 PM Well Jeri..with the speed of my connection I might actually get to see what Sam's hands actually look like on the video! Normally they're just a blur! mooman |
|
Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: IvanB Date: 06 Jun 01 - 07:48 PM Jeri, the archive listing seems to be right up to date with last night's program listed. I didn't click to make sure, but it appears they're still being archived. |
|
Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Jeri Date: 06 Jun 01 - 08:07 PM Ivan, I meant Rick's show, with samianbill. Last one is Sep 13 1999. (I got excited for a minute and had to look.) Oh well, maybe I'm just confused as usual and nobody was talking about Rick's show except me. |
|
Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Noreen Date: 06 Jun 01 - 09:16 PM I'm with you, Jeri.... ! :0) |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Big Mick Date: 06 Jun 01 - 09:45 PM Well folks, I just got off the phone with the lot of them. It appears that PatSpaw has them firmly indoctrinated into the Layabout Kwon Do. The lads are fed, and are having a ball. Spaw sez that Ian and Sam can't make up there minds whether they like playing music or playing frisbee with the boys more. So they just do both. Outside for a few minutes of Frisbee.......in the door for music and munchies.........out the door for Frisbee and the whole thing starts over. I spoke with all of them and I advise you older Catters to get plenty of rest prior to them getting there. Sam, and especially Ian, seem to have the constitution of bumblebees.........I got tired just talking to them. All kidding aside, they were perfectly charming lads to speak with, and I am profoundly sad that I had my schedule changed at the last minute. I would have loved to have sat and made music with these fine lads. And Bill, what can I say, he is still Bill. A wonderful man that I am proud to call my friend. It was wonderful to hear his voice. I can't wait to hear the radio show. All the best, Mick |
|
Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Naemanson Date: 06 Jun 01 - 10:07 PM Glad to know they have arrived safely at Spawville. Now if they can survive without being totally corrupted by Spaw, Cletus, and the Reg Boys. I'm sure KarenSpaw will help protect them and the kids will keep them active and out of Spaw's direct influence. Obviously, if they are flying frisbees then it has quite raining in Ohio. Nice to know that. They need a weather break. |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: katlaughing Date: 06 Jun 01 - 11:52 PM Oh, MY! Just had a call from Connie's! LOTS of music coming through. Connie and I talked and she was so thrilled about her older boys learning some new things from Ian and Sam, esp. drumming; she said they can come back anytime as long as they play while she cooks for them! There is a theatre just down the road from her, which is part of a venerable old library and they've decided it is just the type of venue for such as Bill, Ian, and Sam and that next time they come over they'll have to present a program there. Spaw was down to his last 20 minutes of eating time before he has to give it up for the oral rehab, tomorrow. I told Connie oral rehab meant there'd be no more swear words out of his mouth. Hahaha!! He sounded good but was headed off ta bed shortly as he has to get up at 4am in order to pick Karen up from work, then head over to the hospital for his date with the oral surgeons. Ian and Sam sounded wonderful, taking the piss outta each other and just lovely to me over the phone. Spaw and Connie were really singing their praises. It will be wonderful to meet them next time round. Bill, well, you know, Bill is so special. Had a lovely visit with him. I told him he HAS to be THE Mudcat Ambassador At Large. He is like a rock rolling along gathering up all in his wake, sharing so much with each other in that laid back unassuming way of his. What a incredible friend and musician. Like us, they are going to try to make it to the Getaway, finances and all providin'. It sounds like this could be a really good year for Mudcatters there. I told them we're all looking forward to them being on Mudcat radio. Bill said they will drive through the night from there to Animaterra's, as they play at her school the next afternoon. I could hear first Ian, then Sam playing in the background, as well as Bill and it was just incredible. Can't wait to *see* them on the radio, too! Thanks, Spaw and Connie, for the phone call. Love to you all and safe journeys. Spaw...open wide and know that we'll be there with you tomorrow, darlin'.... luvyakat |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Naemanson Date: 07 Jun 01 - 04:01 AM Kat, you should add your phrase "...taking the piss outta each other..." to the strange expressions thread. What's it mean? |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Sam Pirt Date: 07 Jun 01 - 04:42 AM From Gill - Sam's mum (still haven't got a Catter's name . . . ) Fascinating to read all this chat going on. I feel as though I am there with you all. The Trio have been shown such warm and enthusiastic hospitality by you all - if anyone ever would like a stay over here in England we could make up a whole houseparty - we have lots of space! It's always great to have friends stay - you are very welcome. Keep on having those good times! Love to you all - from Gill

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Noreen Date: 07 Jun 01 - 09:32 AM Kat's picking up the UK phrases well... we'll convert you all yet! Taking the piss = making fun of, in the nicest possible way (usually). Thanks all, for the updates. Noreen |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: katlaughing Date: 07 Jun 01 - 02:01 PM This just in from Connie. Her email has been acting up, destroying all of her addys even after saving, so I had to send her one, last night, so she'd have mine, again. Anyhow, news from the fellahs and from Connie: Bill sends regards to all. Tues after leaving Rick's they traveled to Niagara Falls stayed on the Canadian side; among other things toured the Ripleys Believe It or Not Museum. Ian rested while Sam and Bill "walked to the U.S." They were able to view "the illumination of the Falls" and enjoyed it. They all arrived safe and sound last night in time for a barbecue...western BBQ ribs, Brats (from the local Bremen meat shop Rheinschield family...so they are rather German in taste); macaroni salad, cole slaw, kraut, potato chips and corn chips. As it was our youngest son's birthday we had birthday cake for him and an early birthday for Spaw. They will be traveling to Strougsburg, Pennsylvania in a few minutes...about a 7 hour drive. Then tomorrow they will view the Martin guitar factory. Then they will cross to Sea Bright, New Jersey -- Annamill's. All are still well. We listened to wonderful music until 1:30 a.m. Our son said that it was the very BEST birthday that he has ever had. Bill reports that the best US tea is awful. So Ian treated us to some Yorkshire tea...Bill was quite right!!! YUM! For breakfast, they had rice grits, our variation on the "famous Southern staple". I will have to trust a true Southerner to the honor of serving them the real thing on another visit. We have had a wonderful visit and of course we would like for them to stay longer. As yet we have no word on how Pat is doing with his"total rehab". Karen always calls us and lets us know how he has come through procedures and surgeries. I will post to you as soon as I know. Love to All! and thanks to Kat for posting this to the mudcatters. Connie To Sam's and Ian's parents: Your son's are delightful! They have been so kind and polite, genuine, easy to please, and eager to experience our area of the country's food. They are thoughtful, pleasant young men...and all of that in addition to such musical talent and skill. They so graciously explained to our sons how to play the piano accordion and melodion as well as the differences in them. They even helped our sons to play a little bit. This totally "made their day". We are so honored to have the wonderful opportunity to spend time with Bill, Sam, and Ian...and have the chance to get to know them a bit. Thank you for loaning them to us. I am at a loss for words to describe how pleasant our last few hours have been...it has been like a vacation...the music has been good for the soul. Bill is taking good care of them, and teaching them the American nuances, as well as serving as an interpreter as necessary.
We hope to some day meet you all. ______________________________ |

Connie just sent this, too. I thought it was pretty funny and we both wanted to share it with Ian and Sam: I thought that in all the finer points that Bill is teaching the lads that they might want to include this for making observational notes as they travel around.

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Tyler Date: 07 Jun 01 - 04:01 PM O.K Bill, you've convinced me to join Mudcat and spin my first thread, now please respond and let me know what to do with your effigy! Bob (sometimes resident artist at the Press Room sessions, Portsmouth N.H) Nielson's large drawings- one of you and Ian & one of Sam, with instruments, currently have pride of uncrumpled place on the front seat of my car. Do you want me to preserve them until your next visit or send them to a location of your choice? By the way, I went to a session on Tuesday where people were already playing some of the "new" tunes they'd heard you all play on Friday- so your influence spreads. Thanks for reminding me of "Whistling Rufus". Now if I could just remember how to start "Shuffling Samuel" my old set from student ceilidhs in Scotland would be complete! Cheers, Tyler |

Subject: RE: **IAN** sam & bill heading to CATSPAW'S! From: Sam Pirt Date: 07 Jun 01 - 06:52 PM from Gill - Sam's mum It's good to see lots of action still. Which thread(s) will take over from this? I think when Sam gets back home I'll be tempted to stay with this www thing - Mudcat being at the top of my list! I feel pretty good too - getting the hang of it now. Connie e-mailed me the following which I'm hoping to copy and send out to Mudcat - Oh darn it (does that sound a bit American?) and I've even vowed to stop swearing - it didn't work. Let me see if I can send it to Jellybeam and see what Ian's family can do with it. And hello to Ian and Bill - and of course to our Sam too. I'm just going to look at a thread about your smile Sam - bet it will be even smilier after your adventures. Love to all - Gill |
