Al, I'm sorry I didn't get to see your reply. It was a genuine question.

As I've said earlier, although I've never seen you live, I've watched and enjoyed the stuff you've got on youtube, and although it's not my place to judge, I'm quite comfortable describing what you do as folk music, and would by no means be disappointed to see that in a club.

My curiosity is whether you do actually have the real dislike of the tradition that seems to come across in your posts on this thread, and if so, why, and why you want to associate yourself with Folk.
