It really depends on the Country. I like Folk Music as a whole but there are specific aspects of it that I'm not really into !!!!

I pretty much like all of it, but ya know...that shouldn't surprise anyone.

Never heard of it tbh.

Time to fix that!

^That's some good shit right there.

Anyway folk and its derivatives are probs my favourite genre.

My only limitation is when they classify country-style banjo music as "folk". Ehhhhh.


Anyway I was meant to stay off fanpop but the words 'folk music' summoned me :3

I heard one. @Zanny Thanks for the links.

@Princes Ikr, so much good shit. Yeah it's one of my favorites alongside Symphonic Metal. If I learn to play the hurdy gurdy will you allow me to summon you with it?

@Coke No problem. :P

Lol not just that. If you learn to play hurdy gurdy, I will worship the ground on which you walk.

So like I legit bought myself a Pontian Lyra last time I went to Greece. I learn lyra, you learn hurdy gurdy, we both ascend to top level folk fans. Sounds like a plan to me.

See now I have to do it lol.

The only problem is that they are so expensive. Otherwise I'd already have one.

Holy shit they're like $2000+ 0_o 0_o Yeaaaah understandable lol.

I saw link for like $200 and I couldn't help myself despite the fact that I'm a povo uni student.

Edit: pretty sure "povo" is a regionalism and it doesn't even show up on urban dictionary coz I just checked. Anyway it means "impoverished" and it's a great word, imma use it without explanation from now on.

Basically lol. Idk if I'll ever be able to get one; I'm saving up for a vacation to the Neatherlands and Iceland.

Dude I'd do the same thing. I did do it in fact, when I saw the tickets to the Once Upon A Time convention.

Yup. It's one of my most listened to genres lately.

Awesome! It's a great genere; what bands do you listen to?
