All these years and folk music is still getting the squeeze? This is starting to sound like the days way back when when you could get killed for singing traditional songs.

Overall, I think it's a real bummer. Folk music by its very nature has always been spontanious, spur of the moment, from the heart, and sung anywhere and anywhen the singers and musicians wanted.

I guess if the British government wants to regulate their own musical heritage into oblivion, that's their business but it sure makes the rest of us a whole lot more miserable.

Good luck.
