Elsie,

'we wont be mad at you for expressing your opinion.'---right

That's right
To tell you the truth, in many ways, I agree with your opinion. In fact I belong to a local folk club and express that opinion when they have 'folk' concerts that really belong in the 'singer/songwriter' world. But then I -PAY- to belong to that club. I also get even with them, from time to time, by sneaking in one of my own songs.
So keep singing the songs that YOU like.

Bert.
