rodentred folk music 20 yrs from now dead or alive (61* d) RE: folk music 20 yrs from now dead or alive 30 Jan 07


The music will carry on. Whether it is in the same form or not we can't tell but for certain there are many young people who are enthusiastic about the music. There will always be a demand from people who want to have a good old sing and the folk tunes are eminently singable.

Some of the old crusties who insist they know how folk should be sung will be gone but perhaps thats not a bad thing. What did Matt Armour write - this day is their day, this way is their way or something like that.

Even so I bet someone in 20 years will be asking will folk music survive?
