"I'm not 100% sure but I don't think a single person has said that they don't like "singing and listening to centuries old ballads and folk songs"

I certainly haven't said any such thing."


And neither have I, Raggy. In fact, in my dream-club, 'modern' (for want of a better word) folk-styled songs would (and, in fact, are in the clubs I frequent!) performed and enjoyed alongside 'centuries-old ballads and songs'. I totally fail to see why one must exclude the other.
