"DO YOUR UNDERSTAND YOU BORING OLD TWAT"
I suppose this means the wedding's off?
What is it with you Dick?
Is it that the old mob brought more to folk-song than any of us ever could if we lived two lifetimes?
Or maybe it's the respect they have gained from all but a few of those who have benefited from their gift to us?
Or perhaps it's the amount of respect they have earned (present company excepted, of course) from those of us who have spent our lifetimes wallowing in what they gave us.
This is one of a long line of your displays of disregard verging on open dislike of tradition bearers - not so long ago it was "musicians who think they are God" I seem to remember.
"I am saying everybody should be treated equally"
So am ******* I saying that - nobody has suggested that their interests come before anybody's - just that they have as much right to have their grievances heard as does anybody.
You have defended the shitty behaviour of Kennedy, first by openly denying that he did anything wrong, then playing down what you have been forced to recognise he did do.
I really don't object to your giving us your little displays - they save me the trouble of providing examples of the attitude I am talking about.
For the sake of your own image, leave it out.
On second thoughts, keep up the good work - who knows, it might even shame some of the others out from the closets they appear to have slunk into,
