Well there is nothing in the P2 FAQ <g> but I happen to LOVE the Freight Hoppers and I think that they are probably the most exciting and accessible Old Time String Band playing (and if you believe Mike Cutler of Elderly Instruments EVER). Few bands can hold up to the legecy of the turn of the century and early/mid 20th century string bands . . . but I think that the FH's do a contemporary spin while preserving the legecy of the Old Time Chops and with the energy that their lives depend on it (and from my experience their lives DO depend on it!). -jim
