BTW: Mike, what do you mean with modern country? I'm more into Bluegrass/New Accoustic stuff (David Grisman rules!) myself.

Allison Kraus and Union Station is great.
When I say modern country, I mean the stuff from the last 20-30 years or so. can't say I care too much for the early 30's stuff, although some of it is good.

It has given me a good insight though into how hard it really is to get a job in any form of 3D.
Considering we hold your work in such high esteem, I wonder how good the others are at Warthog.
Anyway Mike I am glad you're happy - you deserve it!

I have to confess that I don`t know too much Alison Kraus stuff. Mainly 'Everytime you say goodbye', and there is pretty much Bluegrass stuff on it.
Try Lynn Morris Band!

Dont be too concerned about your age. Everyone has to start somewhere, no matter when in life. You've still got plenty of years ahead of you! It's not as if you're 90 and trying to learn computers. Renderizer - I'll give 'em a try
