Sorry I'm hogging the board today.  Where's everyone else?
I don't have the funny non-ascii characters on my kboard either...

I believe Carelian music is kind of Ur-Celtic.  We'll have to consult a
musicologist, but Celtic culture arrived in what is now the UK from towards
those frigid lands inhabited by gnomes and ice-giants and our friend Jukka
Sinkko, right? As opposed to Roman or Gallic influences on Britain...
Anyway an article I read about V”rttin” said that they could be categorized
as Celtic, and listening to them it seems to make sense. Hey, I'm from
Japan, gimme a break!  Okay...I say, pop music from Okinawa is like
Japanese reggae!  Hah...I got you!

Humbly, Cornered, Squirming, Hiro
