Before I get any more remonstrating or commiserating messages from listers who have apparently not heard of the Dixie Chicks or George W. Bush, let me emphasize that the message below was what's known in internet lingo as "a joke." It contains only two facts: 1) I left the LSA Board last year, on amicable terms with everyone (as far as I can tell from our communications, which were mostly email); and 2) LSA president Dick Hoban does, indeed, live in Texas. The Dixie Chicks, on the other hand, have all moved to California, where rumor has it they're learning Italian so they can record an album of Luzzasco Luzzaschi's music composed for the Three Ladies of Ferrara.

Sorry about the premature send earlier. I just wanted to remark that I haven't been on the LSA Board of Directors for a while now. As most of you know, I was hounded off the Board after I made a remark during an overseas concert that "We're ashamed that the president of the LSA is from Texas." It got ugly after that, what with the lute community being as reactionary as it is: CD burnings, snubbings at major awards ceremonies, hate letters telling me to "shut up and intabulate." I'm particularly miffed that Sting said not a word in my defense. But I'm ready to make nice.
