The Carolina Tar Heels

The Carolina Tar Heels was an American old time string band. It originally consisted of Dock Walsh (July 23, 1901 – May 28, 1967) on banjo and Gwen Foster on harmonica.[1] Later Clarence Ashley (September 29, 1895 – June 2, 1967) joined on guitar and Garley Foster (January 10, 1905 – October 5, 1968) would replace Gwen on harmonica. Despite sharing a surname Gwen and Garley were not related.[2]

gollark: *Perl* and *Java* have ADTs now? Neat.
gollark: Yes, but lots of them don't.
gollark: It is nice that Rust actually has tagged unions, which somehow basically all other languages missed out on implementing.
gollark: I don't mind the syntax, I just generally don't seem as productive in it as in other stuff. Also, the compiler is quite slow.
