BK The Amish and Folk Music (38) RE: BS: The Amish and Folk Music 12 Mar 00


Used to live near 'em. By & large, some of the best folk around to have as neighbors. & THEY often have an excellent sense of humor...

For example, what goes cloppety clop clop, cloppety clop clop; BANG!, BANG!; cloppity, clop clop, clop , clop, clop,...

Give up?

An Amish drive-by-shooting (Genuine Amish Country joke.)

On the other hand, a shy but promising young woman singer-song writer who grew up Amish, w/ the prospect of living that way, wrote sometimes funny, but very telling, & painful, songs abt it. The woman's perspective in some of the poorer, more isolated Amish communities is potentially rather grim..

Cheers, BK
