There's a huge resurgence of interest in what we could call folk music, and by young people. But what is of interest to them , sat round in a noisy pub whilst an old man with a beard gets a three chord book out and strums an old country and western song whilst other old men are leafing through their similar books? There are some folk clubs out there still. When I find them, I also find a large younger audience. Nothing wrong with old men and books, just don't expect anybody under 65 to say wow...
