Folk Music

[vmail]

Hi could someone help me, I am looking for some vids of English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish Folk music.

Folk music means nothing to me as I am in to R&B, Hiphop, Dance, Trance, Hard House, etc, I have managed to get some videos of what I think are folk music, to me most of them look as if they were drunk. If I give you the list of names would you be able to tell me if they are folk music.

I know that 16yrs can use their solo cards when paying online, can anyone under 16 pay online?

Thank for your help.

I wouldnt call the pogues folk music mate, more like punk but they did a few collaberations with the Dubliners who are folk music.

1 way to tell - Beards with no tash, chunky knit sweaters and fiddles :D

[Carlgolsby]

wouldn't really call sigur ros folk either

Why dont you look on www.allmusic.com it's a fantastic database with all the music info you could shake a stick at!

Shane McGowan live - what a show - when I shot him back in '98 he barely moved on the stage and you could smell the booze from the pit.....

[gordypix]

So what are you gonna do with that lot then..........

So what are you gonna do with that lot then..........

its for my uni assignment, its a java applet that allows ppl to logon, send activation code via email, writes to an Access DB, validate Credit Card Number, plays movies, allow ppl to vote for their fav folk song, and automatically select a random prize draw winner

all without using any server script such as ASP

I have just done a folk music topic with my year 8!

Quite a lot of those things were 'fake' folk, i.e. regular bands/singers covering original folk songs..

Something that should be easy to get hold of - the riverdance, that's irish folk music/dancing, or other Irish Jigs...

For Welsh, a video of an Eisteddfod (spelling!?) festival..

English - morris dancers etc..

Scottish, Higland bagpipers, there are loads of sites where you can pick up MP3's etc but videos may be harder.. I have videos but I can't lend them out!

If you need a hand finding out genuine stuff I can help
