Welcome back, Fine Art with an eye to match...hol(e)y cow! Your pix are INCREDIBLE!! Each one a work of Art/art. Thanks so much. There's more in your 78's CD package going out on Saturday. Oh, and I really love your creative use of duct tape.:-)

Missed you Art. There are some here who imitate your humor. None succeed at making me groan out loud. The gossips will have fun with that.

Folks, thanks for your welcome welcomeing!!

My FOLK SCENE PHOTOS on line are not what I sent KAT on a CD. A few of the Folk Photos were on there too---but just the ones I also thought of as among my best photos. The rest on that CD were on all sorts of other topics BESIDES the folk scene----just what I thought worth snapping over the years---but all were ones I like best. Kat, I'm glad you and Rog are njoying them. Many of 'em exhibit a certain bizarre sense of humor --- visual puns sort of.

I've heard it said that coincidents are God's puns!

Anyhow, a reminder that you can view my folk photos at:

Thanks again to Max and Joe and Dick and Kat and all of you for this community here that sometimes I'm not appreciative enough of. And thanks to Bruce Kallick for providing the space on his site for my snapshots.---- Feel free to pass the site on to anyone you know who might enjoy seeing it.

KEERISIST H. GEEST!!! Where in the heck have you been? I haven't slept in 6 weeks, just worrying about you!!! (you believe that ... don't you?) Now that I know you've returned, safe and sound, I can get some rest. I'll check in again in six more weeks!!!! CHEERS, Bob(deckman)Nelson

Geez Art! That great lug of a Mick talking in a bloody foreign language gets a comment, but a pure Cockney welcome goes unnoticed.

Bugger, bugger, bugger! Yearggh! - Ah well, we still love ya, even though you know doodly squat about ENGLISH folklore! *HEE HEE*

Bob,

I didn't go anywhere. As it turns out, I just had to get a new modem---a much smaller problem to fix than I'd realized. It's been got, so I'm here again----courtesy of son Chris.

Kendall, I hear ya loud and clear. Keep on being better each day.

Hi Art
I saw Bryan Bowers tonight and I see he is playing in the Art Thieme room at that place in Chicago next week. I need to write you a long letter and send the banjo music I copied but then haven't got into the bubble mailer. I'm a bad friend.....love,harp

Yes, Harp, it was very nice of those good folks to name their concert space for me. I'm continually amazed by people. And it's grand to see artists like Brian booked into that concert series. It just makes me speechless---and chokes me up.

And you stay out of that bubble mailer!! Way too little oxygen. You would never survive the trip--even though it'd be fun seeing you after all those years since the Ark. ;-)

Hey, welcome back buddy. Your name was invoked a number of times at NOMAD recently--most notably in Scott Alarik's concert set. He sang your neat version of shule aroon, and rattled off Thieme-isms (with attribution and abandon!). It was a treat to meet him after admiring his writing for so many years, and to learn he's as big a fan of your songs and wit as I am. Didn't realize Scott was a fine singer as well as one of the best writers about folk music I've ever read. A treat!

In packing for my recent move to Maine I came across incontrovertible photographic evidence of Cathy Fink receiving the "panjo" from you in our Takoma Park diningroom. Very funny stuff. I don't have a scanner, but will try to get copies and send them to you sometime soon. Folks, imagine a banjo made by Art from a bedpan. It really happened--and, Cathy being Cathy, the "instrument" immediately got played, and the moment captured on film.
Cheers,
Kathy

Kathy,

My favorite shot is up on the wall right in front of me. C.F. took it. It's Mr. Pete Seeger playing that PANJO sitting at their dining room table. I love it!

Wendy, (I assume)----I think I ran out of film.
