Sylvia Miskoe remarks:

Heh. I've always like the definition that tradition means
whatever people were doing when I first got involved.

This sorta goes along with the articles about the big new
folk revival that I've read every year or two for decades.
They are written by a reporter who just stumbled onto
something that had been happening for a long time before
that, of course.
