Looks good. Kind of the usual suspects though. Nice to see the Flecktones back. I will be most interested in the "…and many more to be named later! But who goes to Telluride for the music anyway! It’s all about the RuuuuuuuuuuuuuuummmmmmmBaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllssss! :pirate
thanks once again for the tips mister sugar! will def get ready for 2016 with their most recents
also thanks so much for specifically mentioning that 10/30/14 show i am most interested in hearing that
watched that clip of the hitchhiker…some mighty fine geetar on that one!
so the news is good!! think they will get a nightgrass gig? chances?
my guess is with all the other good stuff scheduled they don’t get a end of day closing set? or?
wow i thought it was suppose to be a co headline last year at red rocks…sure seemed that way with the billing/advertising. i’ve seen greensky 3 times now and that just isn’t enough. i like ymsb but i love greensky and to any peeps who think im crazy about that statement please forgive me as it’s just personal opinion. best greensky show for me was 2014 at the ogden in denver. ain’t no bread in the breadbox encore was over the top…just like big shot(billy joel cover) was at the palm last year nightgrass…love love LOVE them. all of their albums are amazing+ and that utube show of them playing with sam bush 2/22/14 wintergrass is one of my fave shows to watch
with greensky getting the headlining gig at red rocks this year i’m really hoping for a minimum of the palm again for nightgrass. for me personally they represent that sound(TBF) the best of any i’ve heard so far, cept maybe sam bush band but he’s on another level and is truly the king. so, selfishly speaking, i would kind of like to see a break in tradition and have greensky do the conference center gig. the free afternoon wed show would be good but not as good as the palm or the conf center…again all my personal opinion!
they are clearly on a roll playing the dear jerry event even. too bad they got cut from that. they deserve greatness is all i can say 
Yep, agree, agree.
I’m about 90% sure we’ll get a Dusters nightgrass. I’m really hoping for a Sheridan show for them, but I suspect they’ll be at The Palm. I would love to see them close out Thursday or Friday night, but I find that unlikely. My guess would be a mid-afternoon set on Friday.
Doubt you will see the Dusters at that free Wed. afternoon show at Mt. Village. PB usually reserves that show for new, or fairly new up and coming artists, so you may see someone like Sierra Hull there, the L’il Smokies, or one of those “many more to be announced” artists. This helps get them more exposure. It’s nice of PB to do that. Some of the shows have been great, including folks like Frank Solivan and Lake Street Dive.
Ok, ok, way cool…just spent a fab hour watching and listening to Dusters on youtube. They are fantastic. Have ordered CDs. Again - this forum has dramatically grown my musical repertoire, thanks Festivarians. Dont tell him but Sugar is very informed fan, has sent me off to find a number of bands who are now on high rotation at our place
Ummm, did i mention its 41 degrees centigrade? We are wearing bathers and basically grooving to bluegrass in the tropics. Its a cool combination
Cannot wait to get back to that Telluride vibe, happy summer(s) ahead
I taught him everything he knows…
:lol
… or at least some of what he knows.
I love you with all of my heart, Planet Bluegrass.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this lineup!
And… We have another happy Flecktones camper. Lol…
Me Too Jen!
I would love to see Victor Wooten do another workshop at Elks Park like he did awhile ago . I was there and it was life changing !!
I agree. That workshop was SO much fun! Lots of stories, and that song where he de-tuned and re-tuned every string was AMAZING!

fab, i just ordered three of their CDs, im in
Which three?
Let it go; silver sky; we’ll do it live. I just picked the most recent…did i miss a classic?
Those are the three I would have directed you to. Their earlier albums are also fantastic, but are more traditional. We’ll Do It Live is, in my opinion, the turning point for them where they really start to evolve as a band. Not long after that, their mandolin player left and they didn’t replace him. That’s when they really started moving away from the more traditional sound, though they do still break out some traditional bluegrass during their shows.
Sugar, you have only ever recommended great music so i go on faith with you. You are the person who got me to listen to Greensky…and, you know, it changed my life…looking foreard to a new love affair with this lot.
Merry Christmas! Wearing bathers, eating mangoes, life is grand.
In search of the endless summer and great music.
:flower :flower :flower
There does seem to be something missing from the lineup announced so far. I’m trying to put my finger on it . . .
Oh, women performers. Yes, there are a few, but few is no exaggeration. It seems the odor of Old Spice will permeate the green room.
