There have been many threads that have eventually become a "what is folk" discussion. Sometimes, serious, sometimes not. Sometimes both.

I don't want to get that discussion going again, there are a couple of current threads doing the rounds if you must...

I am curious about what YOUR folk means to you, and the degree you embrace it. For instance, for me..

I have a nostalgic liking for sitting in a pub being part of a singaround, getting up in a more concert type club and doing a quick turn and enjoy hearing various levels of talent on the basis of "having a go" and sharing your enjoyment for the music.

I personally don't enjoy traditional dance, overtly political rants disguised as providing enjoyment or living the stereotype.

What does YOUR folk mean to you, and which aspects of folk do you not personally relate to?
