"I said it would be nice if the EFDSS gave those who are bringing in tens of thousands to folk music, a gold badge...as they had Walter, because they are doing far more for the music now."
Lizzie - Lonnie Donegan and Bob Dylan brought far more people into folk music long before SOH, Kate Rusby and the entire Lakeman family were ever heard of; but I can't imagine anyone campaigning for EFDSS to award them a gold badge.
