   Yesterday it was announced that the last Country Radio Stations in both New   
   York and Los Angeles are now off the air!!!!!  You cannot listen to country   
   music in either of the 2 largest cities in America.   
      
   Those that think Nickel Creek or John Cowan has anything at all to do with   
   Bluegrass Music have some dumb they haven't used :)  Acoustic Jazz, yes.   
   Bluegrass, No!   
      
   The music is dying.  Very few of us left that actually understand or play   
   it.  When we are gone so will bluegrass be gone.
