I've heard Charles de Lint play music, and he plays a really rockin' brand of folk. More Great Big Sea, less Pete Seeger.

I would only worry if he were to perform Filk.

The character she's holding up, xuān​, does not mean "forget sorrow". It means "orange daylily".

Oy. He sang and played folksy tunes at a reading I saw a few years ago. I...haven't had an urge to ever see him read again. Or to read his books again.
