But there was more to them than that. They were performing locally and getting stage practice I guess entirely of their own doing.
exactly. for DMF, they seemed to have been bit by the bug pretty early.

my impressions of Betty and Barbara was this was never anywhere near that level of a personal interest. to them, it was more of a hobby. which is why they were both totally fine with exiting.

i do wonder with Flo a bit. her personal issues of course color all of this. was singing and being an entertainer REALLY what was going to bring her happiness? or was she someone that might have been better served in a more "normal" life and then being very active in her church choir or some more local musical outlet?
