==========================

Cash-in angle!? You're saying when Blues Traveller chose that name, they 
were hoping to cash in on the blues gravy train? Right. Most blues acts 
these days travel hundreds of miles in crappy, crowded vans to the next 
underpaid one-nighter just for tax reasons; today's blues guys are ACTUALLY 
all stinkin' rich - they fake a life of poverty because they don't want to 
alert the tax man. LMAO. If Popper and Co. had been looking for a "cash-in 
angle," they would have been just as wise to go with Polka Traveller or 
Klezmer Traveller. ;-)
Seriously, though, regarding Richard J. Smith's comment that the Blues 
Traveller CD he heard "ain't blues," no kidding - they're not a blues band 
and never claim to be. Neither are the Moody Blues. Neither are the Indigo 
Girls. BT is a rock band and, IMHO, a pretty good one.
