A style of acoustic music that is played in very upbeat tempos, with an emphasis on making light of often dark themes, ie. alcoholism, double homicides, death, and drowning. This style of music was first pioneered by the Pogues, mainstreamed by Great Big Sea, and lives on in bands such as Troll 2 and the King's Busketeers.

Party-Goer 2: What? A folk band? Oh, hell no, bro! That's, like Bob Dylan and "Kumbaya" shit.
Party_goer 1: No, man! It's fun! Folk music for parties!

A party Thrown at your home or elsewhere with your grown up friends and family. People will get drunk and secrets will be revealed, food will be eaten, and dancing will go on. It will be grown and sexy mixed with a lil ratchet as soon as "Back that azz up" comes on. For dessert, people will eat cake some might even pass around a joint at the fire pit while talking about the old daze. There might be a swimming pool and people will be jumping in and be laughing hysterically. Somebody might get to drunk to drive home
