I think punk and folk are similar due to their shared ethos. Both aren't focused on musical skill but rather the feelings and emotion tied to the playing styles. Both are music "for the people", as in not art music, but... folk music really. Punk IS folk when it really comes down to it. It's music for the proletariat, and often folk artists have had the same anti-establishment and socialist ideals that are carried in punk music. What I love about both genres is their diversity and the wide array of feelings that can be conjured and places it can take me to. The two are sometimes opposite in which feelings they evoke, but often they operate for me on the same wavelengths.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.
