Hi, Jim! Welcome to the list! There's lots of good information here.
Since you're in the NW Indiana - Chicago - SE Wisconsin area, please consider joining the Midwest Hurdy Gurdy Yahoo! group, too, at http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/ChicagoHG/ - I think everybody there is also a member here, but we use the Yahoo group to discuss local events like our annual get-together and the University of Chicago Folk Festival presentation we did this past spring. Very best regards, -Gary P.
