Art Menius 
Art, we’ve never met, but I’ve been aware of your writing for many years. Glad to have you in Carrboro. My name is Wayne Seymour,and during the 1980’s I was a member of the Sweet Sunny South Stringband along with Ted and Tim Currin and Kinney Doug Rorrer. We gave a concert in Eden, NC with Lonnie Austin and Lewis McDaniel. You followed this up with an article in the Spectator titled “Memories of a Musical Eden” . I would like permission to quote some of this (duly documented” for a planned exhibit in the (NEW) local museum. I would also like to schedule a conversation with you at some point. Thank you. Wayne Seymour
