Alice in Montana acceptable in folk club (2) acceptable in folk club 09 Jul 97


RE: thread on what is a folk song.

Interesting discussion. We don't have a folk club here, but a few of us who like to sing that are in the Sunday night Irish Session have gotten together twice in the last couple months at coffee houses where we sang in a round robin circle. There are only about six of us. The only comment on what was "acceptable" was to try to keep it folk and traditional, in the hope that we could avoid "self-penned songs of teenage angst". But if such a song came up and we enjoyed it!!! I'm sure it would have been welcomed. Alice
