anti-folk

Every silver lining
Contains a big dark cloud
And for every Bob Dylan
There's at least three Girls Aloud

One positive thing about my job is that I'm fortunate to work with some quite interesting characters. One of them, Dennis, can be found strumming away the day's stresses on his guitar at the end of each day. He only taught himself to play a few years ago by making up songs and performing them in local pubs. A few weeks ago I saw some video of his attempt to play his brand of anti-folk in a queue of a North Street bank. Unfortunately, he didn't quite pull it off because the person filming was reluctant to go in (!).
