[mplpost] Blues on a Canadian folk list

[Louise Peacock]

1)  We should be delighted that a show in Utah is playing 
Canadian  music... it's practically impossible to get airplay anyhow, so 
let us rejoice.

2) Roots covers a lot of genres, and folk and blues are in this group 
according to our very own FACTOR loan app:-))

3) and as Tom Savage points, out, if it is a problem to someone, the delete 
key works really well - I use it for any postings that irritate me.

Cheers


Louise
