Subject: RE: Getting gigs at Festivals / Clubs
In my view the disociation of sensibility, that Eliot talked aboutin poetry - that disociation of the way we live, and the way we sing is the fault line that runs a mile wide through the folk revival.

And while the artists don't face up to it, it will repel the public, the audiences will be miniscule relatively speaking - and as an artistic movement in history and in fact, we will be small potatoes.
