That is why our local news stinks. Why do I have to hear about this on national media?

Thanks for the clarification Stephen (re:Printup/Roberts). He would sit in occasionally with local bands when he came to visit.  I had the pleasure of meeting him when I was at Ragtime a few years ago. One of the nicest people I have ever met.
