Re: survey

[Andrew Rubin <andyrubin...>]

Wow! It's fun to see what y'all are interested in Jewish music-wise!  My
name's
Andy Rubin and I run an "old timey klezmer" band out here in Sacramento
called The Freilachmakers Old Time String Band. We do concerts and other
gigs all around the area, and are presently readying our first CD. (For
more band info, dial up our web page:  www.jps.net/morissa/freilach.htm)
I'm a clawhammer style 5-string banjo player totally dedicated to adapting
that instrument and style of playing to klezmer music. (Well, on second
thought, I'm not sure what's adapting to what, but the result is pretty
fun.)  I also pick a mandolin & guitar. Ari, I enjoy your list very much,
particularly the klezmer discussions, and appreciate the service your are
providing. Kol ha-kavod!!
