Your post had a link to a legitemate [sp?] site about second-tier folk singer compliations.

I countered with a link to a absolute sacastic commentary on the Folk movement.

Was your reply double-ironic or did you miss the sarcasm?

I didn't miss the sarcasm, I was just commenting on the music that I liked, including Tom Lehrer's.  So, pretty much doubly ironic.  I grew up with county/bluegrass/folk music, and really loved it.  I prefer the very early Bob Dylan and Joan Baez to most of their later work.  And I also enjoyed the various Tom Lehrer protest songs ("Wehrner Von Braun", "The Vatican Rag").

I enjoyed the music and the commentary on the idiocy of various things pointed out by that music, and I still enjoy the political commentary of various satirists like Roy Zimmerman and the Capitol Steps.  However, I also enjoy the political commentary of an older generation, Mark Twain, for example.

Oh, dude.  I'm 23 now, but when I started reading QC I was about 19, just starting college.  Now I just realized that I'll be older than Marten and Faye in a couple years (maybe a little more, depending on time skips).  Not sure why this is notable, but yeah.

If it's notable to you, then that's enough.

At least, that's what the mods told me to say.

Call the borgs. We hit a time warp. Not years. Decades or centuries. For me the best year is whichever was the best for Simon & Garfunkel or Manhattan Transfer. Me high school flame used her feminine viles to get me to watch "The Wall"as in Pink Floyd, which was ok, I guess. But the one and only Joplin is Scott, and (Sam the Eagle, help me here) Bach ruuuulllzzz.

celticgeek:
Sibelius, for the win.

Skewbrow:
Yess! I <3 u. When's the last time I played Sibelius' Etude? Oh, I don't have a piano around! Guess that explains it. Karelia suite on my iPod.
