^ Nice!

The same Pete Seeger series that hosted Elizabeth Cotten also had the Mamou Cajun Band as guests, playing a livelier style of music. At first I thought the accordion was the best thing about the band, but when the violinist started singing, I changed my mind. I think my only criticism might be the triangle player, who never gives the music a different color by banging on something else instead. I suppose I shouldn't complain: after years spent perfecting the triangle, we shouldn't expect him to suddenly take up a completely different instrument like the cardboard box.
