A lot of them are disappearing, either from neglect or natural disasters. They're very fragile. We had a flood in 2002 and we lost two buildings. We would have lost the dance hall itself, had it been in the path.
I'm happy for the newer dance hall-type venues, because they do expose the public to a lot of musicians, people that we have come out here. When they come out here, it's even more of a treat.
It's kind of a chicken-and-egg type thing, whether the song made the town like it is, or whether the town was like it is when the song came out.
It's kind of like having a neighborhood bar that's a town. There's an attraction that it's a famous place, but fame hasn't really changed anything.
