this thread is full of fuddy duddys.

i would put a pound to a penny that concert etiquette
is not the only thing you have gripes out.

i don't much listen to english folk , just came here through a search but your attitudes seem a world away from the conventions of folk music performance across the world (south america, africa, easetern eurpope etc) where talking, singing and dancing is the norm at concerts.

i reckon you lot need to humble yourselves and realise your own quirks and requirements aren't ones that other people should need to concern themselves with.
