Of COURSE we're "arrogant", and "self-righteous" about things we've spent years digging into and trying to understand from "the inside out". If we weren't, we woudn't join groups like Mudcat or song circles, or bluegrass clubs, or Club Django organisations. Because we're also "Folkies", we're nicer generally in our arrogance, than more mainstream "groups". If you don't believe me, check out some of the Rock, Classical, or Country, chat groups.
