Subject: RE: Help: Paris, France, this weekend
Garg, most French persons call all English-speaking people Anglais... it irritates our Scots, Irish and Welsh acquaintances, however Irish music is THE THING here at present and so all trad. music is 'Irlandaise' (or Breton) which irritates me because I like English and Scottish and Welsh trad music too. Strange paradox. Still, you should hear Norman music - no wonder they're keen on Irlandaise. And, of course, Paris is a different country to the rest of France. Anyone coming to Normandy?
