Thread Name: The Weekly Walkabout (part 2.)
Subject: RE: The Weekly Walkabout (part 2.)
I just got back from the Folkworks Durham Gathering and, as usual, I have no problem with the quality but am disappointed by the selection - of tutors and tunes. I thought, as I caught the train home, that when something similar is held in Scotland there's no way it would have such an amount of English culture (and I agree with them). Accordingly, if you'll pardon the pun, I agree with Stigweard on monarchism itself, at least.
Don - I think you'll agree that normally I'm quite frank, but the details you asked for, in this case, are not necessary; but you agree that, whilst respecting land rights, as above, it's good for Americans to see themselves as Americans - it's Americanisation/globalisation that I'm against, as part of my multicultural world argument.
