Subject: RE: guest nights and singaround clubs
None of us is perfect, but I take exception to some of Musket's recent posts, particularly
"Jim reckons good technical guitarist skill has fucked up many a folk song.

No, you daft twat. It has made some crap songs listenable."

Jim has an opinion. Musket has a different opinion. No problem there: we're all entitled to our respective opinions. I happen to share Jim's, but many people evidently share Musket's, and demonstrate it by themselves indulging in instrumental playing that smothers the words. That's their choice in a free country. (I have done it myself, but only rarely and definitely not intentionally.)

Now, what do the words "you daft twat" add to that discussion? Hint: they don't advance the case of the person using them.
