Thread Name: What do you call a bunch of folkies?
Subject: What do you call a bunch of folkies?
I know, apart from various obscenities. But what is the collective? A collective of folkies (no!) A festival of folkies? A charivari of folkies? A charabanc of folkies? A collusion (collision) (collation) of folkies?

All I know is that a bunch of geese on the ground are a gaggle, and when they are in the air, they are a skein. (a collective thread of sorts)

Yours, Peter T.
