Message:   My friend just got back from Lafayette. He went to the big Music Shop in Lafayette (I think that's the name of it).
He asked for a "Tit-Fer", and the guy had no idea what he was referring to. The clerk went and got the manager, and my friend asked again if he had a Tit-Fer... The manager had no idea what he was talking about. After describing a "still triangle", the guy showed him some triangles that were no close to the real thing.

At the end, my friend left empty-handed and eventually found a real Tit-Fer at a public exhibition where an artisan was selling some home-made Tit-Fer in a tent....

Isn't that pathetic that one of the biggest music instrument shop in Lafayette (if not the biggest) would be so ignorant about their own culture???

Any thought or similar experience on your part?
