Thanks, Sonhouse. His stuff must be public domain by now, any sites you could recommend? The gloomier the better for me (I got interested in old blues & country working backwards from Nick Cave).

I like www.archive.org -- lots of old bluegrass and murder ballads to download.

Do you like any Irish bands--The Chieftains, Wolfe Tones, Christy Moore...?

yep, here's one: http://physics.lunet.edu/blues/Son_House.html
it has a discography of his 20 odd records. I play Irish and played in
an Irish band in LA in the 70's and early 80's called Southwind,
got some national airplay on the Lou Grant show, right after that
when the band was going well we broke up, sigh.
I love the great Irish bands, knew some of them, Boys of the Lough,
here is a recent site for them: http://www.boysofthelough.com/boysofthelough.html
they came to our wedding, as well as Robin Williamson from
the incredible string band :
http://www.thebeesknees.com/bk-rw-bi.html
It was quite a party I can tell you! at Judy Gameral's place in
Beverly hills, Judy and I were two of the founders of Southwind,
many a great afternoon rehearsing at her place, actually her folks
place, Art Gameral was her father, # 2 man at 20 th Century fox
for about 30 years, the comptroller. Judy could have done anything
she wanted, for sure! But she chose to be with us playing her
heart out on the hammer dulcimer. Man those were good days!
Now we have this little troupe called the gladsmiths, more on that later
maybe.

O please tell me how to do that. I've almost had a siezure when it comes on. I have to hold my hand over the screen to read any thread he's posted in, and I have'nt been able to read anything he's posted since he put it up. I just assume it's the usual drivel and carry on as if he was'nt there, but that avatar is making me sick.
With Firefox all you need to do is right-click it and choose to block it from the ensuing menu. No idea with Netscape...

Hand of Hecate
(good enough for a tattoo)

What's your guess? I'd say he's a catspaw for an evil woman!

It is a warning, like wasps and their black/yellow stripes. Since Hand of Hecate is an anagram for 'Ache of the nad' I put forth that Hecate, being evil, is particularly evil with hands. Consequently anyone coming into close proximity with HoH will surely find themselves pained in a specific area. Hence the warning is Hand of Hecate = Ache of the nad. Umm... I'm not entirely sure what the hell I'm talking about now.. but there you have it! Nads and stuff... yes...

Hecate is a goddess who was (among other things) worshipped for helping women with labour pains. My guess is that Hand of Hecate, as Hecate's helping hand, is an obstetrician.

I know he's not a doc of any kind . I remember him saying he's in a management position , something in the tec/science sector . He told every on in a post about 2-3 months ago when someone made a slightly racist commeny about Mexicans . He said he's got Latinos, Mexicans , Latin Americans of all different nationalities as employees and was defending their work ethics . I think I may remember the forum now , gimme' a minute ....

EDIT 5 minutes later : Nope , doesn't say exactly what he does on the thread I dug up , but it doesn't sound like he's a doc .
