      @@Roberto-pd8vn To native Italians you are surely right. Thanks for the glowing comments but for whatever reason the young married couple left before having children.
      To reviews of the regions of Italy written for Americans, it is mainly left out and has vastly fewer pages than most any other of the regions in guidebooks and other publications. It almost does not exist compared to the famous ones and my mother was born here in Devon, Chester County, Pennsylvania and her father died in the years of the influenza world-wide epidemic in 1922 leaving a pregnant wife with my mother at 5, a sister if still living at 4, sisters at 3 and 2, and a brother at 1, with the wife never really able to speak English even to the 1940s and tough to get employed.
      Back then the solution was the kids into a Catholic orphanage and my grandmother trying to get her children returned which was done by finding a new husband by which two more were born. Abruzzi was never discussed by my grandmother and so my mother only had memories of the second marriage mainly and the year or two up to the death of her father. The sister disappeared from the family record, and died perhaps during the months in the orphanage. Those years were probably worse than any poverty in Abruzzi the parents had left.
      Life can be real tough, back then for sure.

    Hello, I liked all the snippets- all good songs, but wish you'd posted several segments of the complete songs, 2 or 3 at a time...I'd asked Katie during the Questions Segment of a Petersens show a month or twoo ago in Pennsylvania- how do y'all come up with such innovative arrangements: robust with beautifully unique harmonic passages, eloquently tasteful instrumental breaks&fills and, most of all, interperative embellishments of melodic structure which complement both traditional bluegrass formats and non bluegrass cover songs with a fresh breath of new life? Her answer gave credit to everybody playing summarily, but especially to Emmett who she commended for his formidable musical talents and ingenious arrangement capability.
    So, thats what I miss with the tasty snippets- the chance to hear the encompassing full potential of each, or any, of the song's transformative qualities in their entirety- played by such young and collaborative people such as yourselves.
    Nontheless, God bless you all and keep up the good work- spreading the joy of music with purpose, humility and giving testament to Belief in God- to the delight of all who listen.
    A friend, Dave J. and I are trying to flesh out some venues in or about Baltimore or the Eastern shore. There's a place I go where Rhonda Vincent & the Rage played often:
    A. Curtis Andrew Auction in the rural hamlet of American Corner on Maryland's Eastern Shore.
    It's the real deal for Bluegrass/Country music loving people, as it is a real aution house, not a music hall. There are several other places, and a surprisingly plentiful percentage of rural folk who'd appreciate, and I believe would support the Petersons/Frantz type of wholesome entertainment value. Consider coming to Maryland when on future tour... Dave & I are hoping to work it a bit on this end.
    Love, Karl

      I hinted at that a year or two back, but I just let it drop when I didn't get any responses, even from other comments. I figured, if they were together; then they likely have a good reason not to go public, like all of the young men who are Katie Peterson fans, and would end up brokenhearted. So if Katie is no longer "available"; then they should all be very happy, if she did choose a great guy like Emmett. And to whoever she chooses to spend her life with, just be glad I'm 60, and a bit too old to get in the race.
