Subject: If you could travel back in time...who From: Soldier boy Date: 20 Sep 09 - 07:20 PM Sorry if my posting sounds a bit wierd but I've just had a sort of 'Senior moment'! I was trawling through all the threads on Mudcat when I came across a thread started by Mr Happy, entitled "Ingleton Folk Week 2000. Who's going?" Mr Happy must have also had a 'Senior moment' when his finger slipped and pressed 0 and not 9 for 2009 and then did not properly check his posting before submitting it. Poor Mr Happy is not very happy now, is he, boys and girls? So it got me thinking... about time travel, (like you do!) What if we could actually time travel and travel back in time...who would you want to see? On the Mudcat forum there are always postings of obituaries fondly remembering many of our folk heroes and champions who have sadly passed away. So who were your favourites and who you would love to see again or perhaps for the first time ever? If we had the ability to time travel who would that be for you; who has a special place in your heart and in your memories ? |

I still have a list several pages long. There are many in the Mudcat OBITS whom I met or knew personally and would like to finish conversations with (like Utah Phillips), but I would also like to meet Jeanne Robertson, Davey Stewart, Hamish Imlach, Burl Ives, the semi-famous Walt Robertson, Maybelle Carter, Kilby Snow...(to learn exactly how to make brass picks for autoharp)...and 57 others... (please, let's not make this a list of 'everyone famous you ever heard of... *wry smile*) |
Subject: RE: If you could travel back in time...who From: Joe Offer Date: 20 Sep 09 - 10:54 PM I've never seen Pete Seeger in concert. I'd like to hear him now, but I'd much rather have heard him back in the 1950s and 1960s, when his voice was at its peak. And here I live in Northern California, and I didn't even hear of Kate Wolf and Malvina Reynolds until after they died. What a shame. Oh, and I really would have liked to have met Sam Hinton in person, although I did have the privilege of corresponding with him on the Internet. But I HAVE met Sandy Paton, and had enough contact with him that I think I can call him a friend. I've never met Art Thieme and Jerry Rasmussen and Jean Ritchie and Frank Hamilton in person, but I've had so much contact with them online that I feel I can call them friends, too. So, I feel like I'm blessed. -Joe- |

Be nice to visit Miss Ourity, the outhouse just once more and hear Uncle Joe tell how when he retired he was gioing to set up a catapult at the top of the hill. Miss Puity would be fitted out with garbage cans lined with plastic bags and anyone who dared come up the hill without an invitation would get a bag of shit catapulted down the hill at him. Good times. If I were going back in time as my ancient self, I would want to be strategically placed on that grassy knoll in Dallas. I'd have a camera handy. |

Subject: RE: If you could travel back in time...who From: Little Robyn Date: 22 Sep 09 - 03:31 PM There's a song on the Jackie and Bridie record that goes: I was sitting in my bath chair when they told me They'd found a way to bring back youth again, But I wouldn't go, they couldn't even make me Cos I couldn't stand to face it all again. And it's all for nothing when you think of it..... I think I'd need a return ticket! Robyn |
Subject: RE: If you could travel back in time...who From: Soldier boy Date: 22 Sep 09 - 04:42 PM It's a Return Ticket Tim leaning and Little Robyn. You can come and go at will whenever you desire but you will still be ageing in the normal manner even though you are travelling back in time. Whatever age you are now you will still be that age when you land in the 1960's or 1640's or even year dot. You cannot go back in time to a younger you and take with you what you know now. In fact you can't meet up with yourself in the past becaust that would mean that you are efffectively in two places at the same time and that is not possible. This is crucial because you are not allowed to change history in any way - be it your own life history or any other person or event on the planet. Regard this time travel opportunity as a chance to be given a free concert ticket to see one of your all time favourites at a concert/club/venue at any time in the past but also at a time when you had not been there in person yourself. This thread was intended as an opportunity for imagination and warm hearted expression so I don't want to get too involved in the infinate complexities and scientific principles of time travel. Having said that however...the mind does boggle...at the prospect of...being strategically placed on that little grassy knoll in Dallas with a good modern camera to hand..it really does SINSULL!!! |

Subject: RE: If you could travel back in time...who From: Tim Leaning Date: 22 Sep 09 - 08:31 PM I dunno the things I wanna be there for are probably better as the legends I heard about than how they would have been for me at the time. Beside you said I still gotta be an old fart when I get there so I would still need ear plugs to hear Dylan invent rock or to stand the screaming kids at the cavern club. I dunno some genius gives me a time machine to use and I still moan.... LOL good thread chaps |
Subject: RE: If you could travel back in time...who From: Soldier boy Date: 22 Sep 09 - 09:22 PM Sorry Tim Leaning! OK! No corrections, no constraints, no conventions; no more barriers to time travel and your imagination. Let your imagination run free and re-visit time as a vibrant young man if you wish; no old fart with ear plugs anymore. The time machine is yours (and everyone else reading this thread) to use it at your will, so no more moaning please. Sorry about any constraints I might have wished to impose earlier. Time is limitless, infinate, unmalleable and now yours to use as you wish; either going backwards or now forwards in time. It is now a play-thing that only your imagination and expression can set limits upon. You can even re-visit your past as your younger self now all parameters have been removed. Chris. |

Subject: RE: If you could travel back in time...who From: sing4peace Date: 24 Sep 09 - 09:42 PM My paternal Grandfather, Zachariah (Archie) Katzberg, was a Russian Jew, my Grandmother, Josephine (Josie) Puzelli, was an Italian Catholic. As you can imagine, neither of their families were very happy about their courtship and forbid them to see each other. This was in the early 1920's. Determined to win Josie for his own, Archie would go to the house next door to the Puzelli's in Brooklyn (NY) and play songs on the piano so Josie would know that he was there. He had a diverse repertoire and threw in a couple of Italian favorites. Eventually, the Puzelli's were won over and they welcomed Archie into their family. I'd love to travel back to sit on the stoop and watch Josie as she listened to Archie playing just for her. ----- Joyce |

Subject: RE: If you could travel back in time...who From: Stower Date: 03 Oct 09 - 07:08 PM I agree with SharonA. I suspect Jesus would seem very, very odd indeed, as would anyone of his time to a modern person. Christians have modernised Jesus to fit their needs and aspirations, but he wasn't a modern man. It would be interesting to compare the stories about him to the real thing. Would the real Jesus recognise what was written about him a few decades later? I'd like also to travel back and be present in 1963 at Martin Luther King's "I have a dream" speech and feel the inspirational power of the man, the event, and the crowd. I'd love to have heard Nic Jones play in person in the 1970s. I'd love to have heard John Dowland play in person in the 1590s. |
