GUEST,Arnie folk music 20 yrs from now dead or alive (61* d) RE: folk music 20 yrs from now dead or alive 03 Feb 07


I was thinking about this subject just last week at our folk club.There's a young girl who comes along as she is friendly with one of our singers through her church. Another couple are in their 40's - however, everyone else in in their 50's, 60's and 70's. The MC is about mid-60's. In 20 yrs time, that would make most of us in our 70's, 80's and 90's!! When I started going to folk clubs 30 yrs ago in the mid-70's, a lot of the same members were around then, only we were all 30yrs younger of course and not a grey hair in sight! So, although we had over 40 members in the audience last week, we are all getting older together. I know there are a few young 'uns out there but there don't seem to be enough to go round...
