I am in a 4 person oldies folk group performing mostly Kingston Trio and Peter Paul and Mary songs with a few Tom Paxton and GOrdon Lightfoot numbers tossed in to the set. We get lots of requests for all those old standards like Puff the Magic Dragon, 500 Miles, Today, Where have all the Flowers gone. etc, but 2 of our members refuse to play them. THey think they are too trite or cliche'd or something. I on the other hand, am a music whore and if people like them I would play them in heartbeat. Oh, well, takes all kinds, I guess
