here and trying to give it a kick in the butt.  so i thought i would 
post this here in case anyone is interested:

jess b

ps anyone know a promoter named pat bailey?  i just met him and might 
get to do some work with  him...

---------------------------------
hi fellow montana music fans and musicians and people i thought might 
be interested in this!

i have created an internet list/listserve for us!  i want it to 
support the evolution of a the folk scene in missoula and the rest of 
montana.  so if you are a folk fan, a musician, a promoter, or just 
interested in supporting or being part of the growing folk scene, 
please join it!    and please forward this message to anyone else you 
know who might be interested.

i was inspired by some of the great music i saw at first night last 
week (ie jenn adams, john floridis, tom catmull, amy martin...).

at first i didnt know if this list was needed since the missoula 
folklore society has a list, but i think that one specifically about 
music can't hurt...

Official description: 
This group is for fans of folk music is Montana. Including 
contemporary folk, traditional folk, singer-songwriter, folk-rock, 
folk-pop, bluegrass, whatever.   My goal is to create a community of 
fans that would help convince musicians from other areas of the 
country to come play in Montana (I am from Boston originally and know 
many great artists out there), and just generally be a nice 
community.   :)

thanks!!
