Thread Name: Why are singer-songwriters called folksingers?
Subject: RE: Why are singer/ songwrites called folksi
You still have people singing songs in coffee-houses in the States? Of course I suppose you maybe don't have the Public Entertainment Licence problem that'd make that illegal in coffee-houses in England. Or tea-rooms for that matter.

Just back from a trip to Italy where I learned that the Italian for Fire is "Fuoca". I think I'm going to talk about "Fuoca Music" in future instead.
