Can't fit everything in. Maybe because stuff like Indian chants and South American has been a bit under-represented on the Detroit market radio playlist, as compared with country? (not sure about bluegrass) |

Stay in Howell and you'll have plenty of it. Do you need a Hoedown every week or something? |

I didn't think Pacy could turn this topic into just another excuse to bitch, but by golly he pulled it off! Good work, Pacy. |

I did think Itsjeff would turn this topic into a criticism of someone and he didn't disappoint! Good work, Itsjeff. |

FYI, One of the performers at the "diversity" festival is Alison Brown, a banjo player who has won numerous International Bluegrass Music Association awards, and a Grammy or two (in the bluegrass category). Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks have been playing hippie-fied Western Swing for decades (yes, I know it's not Lee Greenwood, but probably closer to country acoustic roots). Of course, last time I checked, Michael Franti and the Indigo Girls weren't invited to play at this Hoedown this year, so what exactly is your point? |

No, it still comes across as babble. But if you were trying to lump me into the same category as Pacy and Dillpickle - whose only purpose on this forum is to whine - then I disagree. The big difference is that I actually make positive contributions here from time to time. (And in Pacy's case, I am also semi-literate.) |

Whiners have a place on this forum, too. Besides, what would you wash your cheese down with? Livedog2 |
