I prefer fivebitters. Or more. But I thought any notion of us folkies being primarily passive preservers of some idealised ancient tradition from a golden age would have been quietly dropped after Georgina Boyes' demolition job.

We ain't. We sing songs. In my case, not as I speak, because I don't speak in rhyme or with a tune.And I certainly don't care about somebody's definition of song type X. Did I ever see a wild goose a- sailing non the ocean? No.

And as for playing tunes... I really couldn't care less that somebody thinks they are dance tunes, and should be played so they can dance to them. Get someone else to do that, or learn to dance better.
