Note: Various portions of this FAQ that have email addresses have had them slightly modified in an obvious and easily corrected manner to avoid collection by autospammer software. This won't deal with the ones who actually READ the file, but it should at least help. (Any spammers reading this... did you ever have to cover the kids' sandbox because the neighborhood cats thought it was for THEM? Use the same restraint you wish the cats did.) --Kay
Users of rec.music filk may also be interested in FilkNet and The Dandelion Report. See also the Filker groups on Facebook, MeWe, and lord knows how many other social media. We're pretty social after all. :)
Can't figure out where else to put it in this FAQ so what the heck, here's a link to McCabes Guitar Shop, the most useful place in Santa Monica, CA if you have anything to do with stringed instruments (or like to listen to those who do.) Or drums. Or tin whistles. Or.. oh, just go see the place if you can - is much fun!
