Owlkat	When does Folk = Not political music? (100* d)	RE: When does Folk = Not political music?	12 Jan 00
Hi hi, I don't wanna sing, if it don't mean a thing. That said, there are times and places for the right song. I wouldn't do Masters of War in a bar, unless it was a request.(I admit to being a total slut when it comes to requests. I've played Puff The Magic Dragon in a biker bar. They asked. I played. What can I say?) You can be damned sure, however, that I will play The Band Played Waltzing Matilda at every Remembrance Day/November Coffeehouse. Politics is a part of folk/people's music, and it's part of the job to be political. Apolitical art is beige. It's a pleasant hue, but not one I'd put on a protest sign. Cheers Owl/Mart.
