Sorry if I hit a nerve or was too close to the bone. But. This was my reaction. I was looking forward to a treat, some of my long time favourite performers on prime time TV. An event not to be missed.

What did I get?

Some wacky amateur types acting out some fantasy they previously rehersed in front of their bedroom mirrors.

How much this was set up to fit the beeb's preconception of how to present FOLK music, I am not sure. FOLK usualy means let's have a laugh at some finger-in-the-ear weirdoes. Type casting or what?
