I do a lot of heaving and hauling songs being a member of a shanty group but I love singing a good old weepy sea song or forbitter. When our group are singing out I find myself longing for our set or sets to finish so I can get into a good sing a round. As for fun in folk music a couple of my favourites that I like to sing are THE FISHFINGER SONG,WILL THE TURTLE BE UNBROKEN AND THE PIGEON SONG. Of course if I go to a concert to see a particular performer then it is only polite to sit and listen to thier performance,But I must say that most folk conserts I have been to, the performer/s do tell extremely funny stories between songs. I am convinced that folk artists possibly because of the type of venues they play at, have got lots of amusing stories to tell. KEEP IT FUN AND SERIOUS,IT WORKS.
