Thread Name: Sidmouth Winter Reunion 2009
Subject: RE: Sidmouth Winter Reunion 2009
I posted this a few minutes ago but it got eaten. I'm so pissed off I'll repeat it:

I don't give two hoots . . . we're all f*lkies

That's haunted me all day
"F*lkies" horrify me, both the word and the concept.
I wasn't even at Sidmouth, as previously noted, but suffered simultaneously just one GEFF in Camden Town, and that's one too many.
If you don't know the provenance of a tune or song, FIND OUT.
And never play or sing it out TILL YOU CAN.
Not hard.
But to fall short of these standards is to disrespect the music.
That's shabby behaviour and, as we move into Ash Wednesday, could count as a sin worse than no other.
