I like to believe that if Joe McGasko thinks about a genre of music, it immediately springs into existence with a healthy 7 inch DIY scene and everything. Like that time he imagined American all ages punk bands that have fake Australian accents for some reason, and then that totally happened.

just tuned in. re U2, didn't Jon Langford make a remark about them, seeing them in the way way early days? like, "i knew they were going to go far" (paraphrased), but he disparaged them as well. -- i can't wait to email you my list of premiums, joe, just to give you a hard time. (kissy)

It occurred to me years ago that if you ever did try to "walk away" to "I Will Follow", that you'd stumble. Some extreme...what would you call it, rubato?

Joe here is one for later, if you know Martin Simpson he covers a lot of the territory these songs inhabit. This is a personal song though.

I guess that of most musics of the last forty years, folk music has a fairly even gender split when it comes to singers.
