'Formal Educational Qualifications?

A--I don't understand the question. It's about school, right?'

It's about what you wore to the prom, Peace. Did you wear a tux, tails and top hat, or overalls with brass buckles?

No, Mr. Bridge.

I don't play that song. You obviously are referring to the Merle Haggard song Okie from Muskokee which was a giant hit and actually rates as a modern day folk song, because many, many are familiar with it.

There is a misconception that all folksingers are just dope smoking, drinking, ranters out to change the world. I assure you they are not, and there is a good reason to believe I could out live that type.

I prefer to think of a folksinger as one who entertains and keeps a certain type of music alive. It's not about politics really, it's about the music.

Actually, 'brass' knuckles are made from steel. Not that I know that from personal experience.

"It's about what you wore to the prom, Peace."

Truthfully, I didn't graduate high school and so didn't go to the prom. However, had I, there is NO way on God's green Earth that I would have worn a tux. NO WAY!
