Subject: RE: Help: Rel. of Bluegrass, Celtic, OldTimey, etc
Did you know that "sean nos" was a recently coined term, a translation (or perhaps equivalent is the better term) of " old time". Not that that particularly helps in selling celtic or old time to bluegrass fans. Here's my mission statement: you can call it Irish, you can call it English, you can call it Scottish, you can call it Celtic, you can call it Oldtime,you can call it Bluegrass.....but they're all playing Soldiers Joy.
