​​​@@EmilyHolden_thehuman lol I have had the same experience. Alot of my friends have offered. I've gotten invitations from places in Canada and in America moslty and one from Norway. Because of those people it has made me want to travel hell just my one buddy from Norway named Rolf has made me want to travel because of his request. He told me and the other people in are small communitie if one of goes to Norway to come visit him and if we could bring candy from are countrys for him to try. I have a plan to go meet all of the boys from are community and bring a prop from the channel we all watch( the prop is a 4 year old burger that was rubbed on Randy's gut from trailer park boys) and its all because of a youtube channel that had a couple thousand subs . We found the channel and each other through live streams that only had an average of 15 to 20 viewers so we all started talking and became a small tight knit community. Hell those boys know me better than most honestly.

This confirms a belief I've long held. All music is a form of punk, and that's why "corporate music" sucks. It's for the system, not against it.

We need more protest music. Whether it's folk, punk, jazz, whatever. Art can be for art's sake but i think many artists also have a desire to help improve the world, and now that society has made it so hard for artists to survive let alone thrive tells me this should be a priority for all artists.

@charlieterry8506

a mix of both is needed in the world. The protest art helps challenge and fight against the forces that would see this world stagnate and wither, while simultaneously the art for art's sake gives people respite, beauty to recognize what's worth fighting for, and the energy regained so that we may fight on. or at least that's my opinion.

Meh. The only band or artist I've ever seen that worked that was focused on politics in their songs, was RAM. I didn't agree with a lot of their political views, but they were an incredible band that made incredible music. Outside of that, I think it's really best for musicians and artists to make art and music that comes from the heart. Now and then, a song might have something to say politically; but politics divide, and music is needed to bring people together - where we can find that common ground Huey's talking about. I believe in the right to protest, but I think protest is overrated.

I've lived in my local music scene my entire life and can say it seems an inevitable evolution for many punks and metalheads to eventually make their way to folk and bluegrass. Solid tune man great stuff!

This song was perfect to freestyle vocalize over. Loved it

I do not care what anyone says. If you can play a stringed instrument and still hold down a solid beat/tempo with that instrument, then you deserve every compliment and praise you get

Came for the titled stayed for the lyrics. United we stand divided we fall!!
