Shhh!! Not too loud, you never know. Years ago, Scottish fiddler James Kelly went to Cape Breton to learn the tunes forgotten in Scotland. Lots of Old Time fiddlers went to bluegrass until bunches of upstart yankees headed South to learn Old Time. Now you got Cajun bands in the Netherlands, Bluegrass bands in Russia, Country bands in Canada. And it was a bunch of English guys (Pogues) playing in-your-face Irish stuff that inspired a slew of.... well, whatever.
