About Me

In defense of folk music:Folk is not boring. Folk is not sentimental. Folk is not profound. Folk is not about elves and leprechauns. Folk is not the same as hippy. Folk is not about how good life was two hundred years ago. Folk is not just for old people. Folk is not an Irish phenomon. Folk is not slow music.Folk is very danceable to. Folk is roudy. Folk is simple. Folk is about drink and women and fighting and loss.Folk is better than any other music genre
