Not quite OK Steve and Sheryl whist I respect your opinions and regret that in retrospect I did come over as less than welcoming to a newbie quite the opposite of my usual reaction I can fairly claim. However in thinking it over I really was offended that a newcomer should come in here and start accusing great musicians that I am pleased to call my friends of being "old farts" I suspect that Rick Haynes would readily agree that it is not an unfair description of him,after all I personsally saw Rick with Gord and Red in Montreal's Place Des Arts back in 1968. I suggest we let bygones be bygones and look forwards to more thought provoking topics initiated by our new member
