Giok:
The Gaidwhat? And what do I care where you live, actually? I live in eastern Ontario, so come round for tea or something stronger if you ever get to the New World.

And I could care less what great musicians are or aren't regarded as "folk" by anybody. (Actually I couldn't possibly.) But I hope Capercaillie's stage performances draw on their great earlier albums, the later ones have gotten too airy-fairy for me. (The problem is, they don't rock enough.)

You ought to come to Winnipeg Folk Fest sometime, you'd hate it. But there's this young fiddle prodigy named Kalan Porter whom the traditionalists are lining up to see at Ottawa Folk Fest...get your ticket now!
