Subject: RE: What's wrong with 'Folk Music'
yep, I think you're right. The word has been corrupted to mean something other than it should. "Occupy agreeably" is one of my dictionary's definitions, and I would suggest an audience at a classical concert, a folk concert or a session in a pub are all being agreeably occupied by music.
