Thread Name: The Concept of FREED Folkmusic
Subject: RE: The Concept of FREED Folkmusic
Active preservation and composition are most important enjoyment is way down the list. Though valid.

Advertizing can do most anything why not use it to encourage people to go to libraries, play and learn music easy.....

There is a finite resource to support the music and pros are sucking down most of it. They are getting enough to arrange for national tours involving jet plane money. Way too much. All at the same time when ordinary folk cant get a venue because according to Don they arent refined enough.

Music does not require money. I can prove it by going to any public place and play music. Easy- the money connection is bogus. Get used to it. Music can be free. Certain people just dont want it to be.

Ah yes but if it is too expensive you simply can't come. Thats just economic segregation and intolerance. No riff raff need apply. It is the next frontier on the civil rights adgenda that needs to be worked on. We have already heard on this thread "if you dont like the cost get a job"

Enough said. Rampant elitism and discrimination. Only perfect singers need to apply.....
