Thread Name: Being an old folksinger - don't like it
Subject: Being an old folksinger - don't like it
Its happened twice in the ten days - I've been billed as

1) 'an unapologetically old school folksinger'

2) 'a singer/songwriter of the old school'

I feel like one of Fred Dibhah's fucking steam engines. I didn't say I was old. Where is this old school I'm supposed to have attended? As far as I knew I was a young tearaway from Martin Carthy and his crew of senile songsters.

Bollocks!
