I have neglected to introduce myself. I am a full time professional folksinger. I have been thus employed since the late 1950's. I write songs and I have had my work performed and recorded. I count many successful s/s's among my friends. They, for the most part agree with me. Of course, they all have respect and interest in preserving traditional music and lore. Ordinarily, I wouldn't care what the media want to call something, but I dont like kids thinking that folk music is just a style like Disco. Mike Miller
