Ted, I enjoyed your commnets as well. I grew up in Western North Carolina playing bluegrass and old time. Dancing to the music (clogging)is there expected.Certainly bluegrass moved into the “pure music” world as fast as it could. There will always be those who need to dance down front, just like there will always be those who feel the need to clack spoons along with the perfromers. To the side would be best, but the spirit can sometime take over and…well, just best to go with it.
