Opinions are like a**holes, Everybody's got one.....But Dye, based on everything you've posted thus far,........You might wanna try farting a little nicer..........my opinion

oh yea almost forgot joey ramone just wanted to be sedated

One of the Ramones...the last one to die...was a huge Bush supporter/Republican. If you can figure that one out.

[quote]Sun Volt and Ralph Stanely, are you a fan of Gillian Welch at all?


Yes.

Hey Rootsy,

I'm also a fan of Casey Chambers and Iris Dement.

There's a band that started out on 4AD (label) called Tarnation.

The singer is called Paula Fraser, and she gets compared to Patsy Cline

an awful lot. The album "gentle creatures" has one of my favorite songs;

"The hand". It is a spooky/gothic/alt/country track that I never tire of.

Bet your a fan of Neko Case also. Dye

The Ramones weren't the brightest

yea but you have to admit they were dam rightous

Please consult the dictionary before you post.

I believe the damn you meant to type has an N.

"Tarnations" is a cool name.
I like Iris D. pretty well. She has that authentic mountain voice.

Have heard of Neko Case, but thats all. My "alt" library is pretty small actually. But I'd like to get into more of that kind of vibe. Am very familiar with the ''grandaddies" of the genre like Graham Parsons, Townes VZ, etc.
But I'm an old guy, 49. I just havn't kept up that well. Most of my music purchases for the last 10-15 yrs have been bluegrass for the most part.

You'd think here in South AL there would be lots of younger folks into that kind of thing, but its a wasteland of top 40 CMT and VH1.
Even good bluegrass is considered a novelty at best by the average person.

Too bad my real job keeps me out here in Lost Egyptian Boonies, surrounded by Praise Bands, 16 yr old Rap wannabies, and people who think good music comes out of a Karoke machine

i almost flunked 8th grade english because the teacher always sat on her desk throwing scopes "dam" she was lookin good

Dictionary would be a good start. After that I'd recommend a book on punctuation, capitalization, & proper grammar. Perhaps you should have paid attention to your teacher's lesson instead of her legs. You may have gotten more than 3 replies to your 42 messages if people could read what you type! See how that works?

shesh excuse me for breathin

Thanks for that Diva

Rootsy:

My husband and I are from Philly, where there are opportunities to hear

all sorts of sounds. Now we live in the woods in rural Vermont, it's

gorgeous but isolated, so I know what you're saying.

My spouse was into Emilou, Graham, and Townes. I was into a little alt

country but he got me listening to the older stuff.

Xavier Rudd's been in my cd player awhile, along with mofro and bela fleck. Been listening to alot of Younder mountain too.....

I like Bela Fleck and Bartok.

My hubby did the Dead/Drugs thing before it was over in the 80's.

I never could dig the jam bands though.

Not a dropper of acid either (maybe that's why).

I think it's just too loose and meandering for me.
