Subject: RE: 2005 BBC folk awards - opinions?
How is Vin Garbutt?

These awards are divorced from 'folk' as I know it.

Its a dying body desperately striving for its next breath.

The BBC does sod all for Folk.

Its a shame, but its true.

Pandering to the mass media and thus giving 'folk' professionals an over inflated opinion of their own self importance.

Folk clubs will continue to decline.

Now wheres my play station.
