Stop putting words into my mouth.
I said 80percent,NO,I havent done a survey ,and I may be exaggerating,but most folk festivals are attended by folk enthusiasts,who are not local[do you agree ].most events at folk festivals,are attended by folk enthusiasts,who have travelled to get there.
Folk festivals are generally speaking not community festivals.[and you know it.
Kathryn Tickell,is a fine folk musician.
