I am the fool who started this fiasco! I did not ask for the thread to be closed and the issue of censorship is a different kettle of fish altogether, but come on , it did get well and truly out of hand. . Would just like to make the following points that many seem to have been missed by many-

1, I am 36 yrs of age. I do not particularly consider myself an OP (old person?) and by the standards of the folk scene, I don't think I'd be generally classed as such

2, For the last time...IT WAS THE ONLY SESSION!!!, there was a lack of other participative players around, starting another session was not an option

3, I had nothing against CAF's style of music, tempo, or indeed age, it was their bad manners, rudeness and unfriendliness that I was speaking about

4, I am not a beginner, but when did years of experience mirror confidence and mindset on a particular day

4, Ultimately, nobody else on here seems to have seen what happened. You can be as sycophantic and clever as you like, but ultimately , I feel that CAF know exactly what they did and the incident that I am referring to. If they do not...well maybe a bit of reflection may be in order


'Oh, but they're only young,
why shouldn't they play fast?
Why are you ageist, they are our future!! and other such paraphrasing , point missing bollocks indeed!
