I wasn't saying things are great Jim. I was just saying that's how they seem to be to me.

I got asked to play at a folk club this morning - by text, naturally! (I still haven't learned how to text - my wife told me, I'd got the text - I wouldn't have known).

I feel like a fossil.

I don't see anything wrong with the internet being the medium of folksong and the agent of social change. Perhaps there are Chinese citizens even now who are getting inspired by stories of Woody Guthrie.
