Folk Alliance Newsletter
Performer's Columns
by Joel Mabus
Below are columns I have written for the newsletter
of the Folk Alliance from 1997 to 2003.
Click on the title/topic to read that issue.
note: The first two performers columns were
"news" oriented
and are now entirely out-of-date. I have not included them
here. Below are the more "topical" columns that have been
the general style of the column as it has developed. Keep in mind
that the opinions expressed are my own and are not necessarily
those of the Folk Alliance or the newsletter staff. Also
notice that
I am not a Lawyer, Doctor, or Chief of anything -- free advice is
worth what you pay. Some details may be out of date by the time
you read them. Listed in chronological order, the most recent first,
the dates given
are those of the writing of the piece. The publication
date was a few months later in most cases.
