The point is Jim that you don't seem to grasp the function that folk clubs perform for us, and what we regard as folk music. Why do you feel that your definitions should prescribe folk music for us? You say that you want to make folk music available to future generations. Okay, you've told us where it is, If we want it, we'll know where to look. Mean while, this generation has its own story to tell. And theres quite enough negativity for young songwriters, instrumentalists and dancers without theminence gris of the folk world pitching in. I don't know why you stopped a thread about you either. The snatches of info you have revealed about yourself have been intriguing - I'm sure a lot of people would have been interested.
