ChatGPT, please give me a review of the chaotic folk music session known as the 'Bastard English' session (in Oxford, UK) in the style of a pompous English art critic from the 1990s."Ah, the 'Bastard English' session—a title as brash as the event itself—has become a perplexing spectacle in the cultural tapestry of Oxford’s folk music scene. It is a phenomenon that, at first glance, appears to be a reckless assault on the sanctity of traditional English folk music. Yet, upon closer inspection, it reveals itself as a triumph of irreverent exuberance, a testament to the very spirit of folk music, albeit twisted and mangled by the hubristic hands of its participants.
For all its faults—and they are numerous—the event has a curious charm. Would I call it good music? Certainly not. But it is something far more compelling: it is alive. And in this age of polished, packaged mediocrity, that is a rarity worth savouring, if only for the novelty of it."
