Subject: RE: It isn't 'Folk', but what is it we do?
I'm not going to get dragged into the discussion on trad vs new etc, but I do slightly wonder if there's a bit of hypocrisy here. Someone objected to hearing american folk in England, yet I hear Irish and Scottish, (even the odd bit of Breton) folk in England quite often and few people seem to object. If you object to these as well, then I would understand. And don't go justifying by talking about cultural interchange cos that has happened and no doubt could continue to happen with America as well.
