This brings back to mind a couple of great introductions by Derek Brimstone, my favourite best pal from London, (now in his late 60's) who introduces his blues by saying "Blues is normally played by young white men or old black men, and I don't seem to fit into either category!"

And when doing his wonderful "How to play the Banjo" number, "This is frailing banjo, which is supposed to have come from the Hilly Billy's in West Virginia, only the Hilly Billys in West Virginia don't play frailing banjo, that's usually done by young Jewish gentlemen from New York".

I think he covers this point quite well.
