The mailing list is not meant as a discussion group, though sometimes subscribers will use it to post bluegrass-related questions. As a courtesy, when posting details on events, include location and date in the Subject line. You must subscribe to the list to send and receive content. And, posts to the list are not managed or screened. Please: no flaming and respect the intent of the list.
