Is this interest in American folk music just a phase? I'm not sure, though it is disheartening to be interested in folk music when it seems like no one else around here is... it may be part of 'traditional' American culture in the abstract, but not here in the Bay Area, as far as I can tell. There may be some folk music festivals that I have not discovered yet. But in the long run, what is the likely future of traditional American culture in California?
