An honor

  To quote Sally Field: "They like me, they really like me!"
I jest, but I am quite honored that this blog has been named one of the 25 Best Blogs for Folk Music Fans by bestcollegesonline.net.

Here is what they say:
The horrible stereotype of the folk music fan — the guitar-packing sap, often a college student, who's almost too sensitive to live — is finally fading away. Folk music is as varied and intriguing as the stories and musicians that have made up the genre for decades, with styles and artists ranging from traditional music born in the 19th century to pop-folk of the mid-20th century to singers and songwriters in Americana, country, and rock. It's as much an attitude as a musical leaning. Accordingly, folk music fans embrace everything from classical sounds to anti-folk to modern rock and everything in between. Let these blogs show you the best of what's out there.
News and Reviews
  These blogs will give you a good grounding in the folk world and keep you up to date on the latest happenings.
12. Modern Acoustic: A blog that functions as an online magazine, Modern Acoustic highlights current folk artists and anyone who knows their way around a six-string.

Quite an honor!
