Probably speculation based upon this quote from a different thread :"I was thinking since Mumford canceled on both Bonaroo and Telluride in 2013 and are now playing Bonaroo this year they will make it up to TBF too…
Here’s to hoping anyway!!
I would say I like them because their vocals are really good and they have a sort of theatrical quality to their arrangements and presence.Lots of punch.
Start from the beginning and just explore. Put your headsets on, pour a cool tall one, close the blinds and just really listen.
Different but Bluegrass just the same. Man that banjo just can command your listen. Sometimes I have to listen more then once before I get something. I mean really, I think I just now get Bob Dylan and wonder where I have been. :lol
I like Avett Brothers a lot, particularly their earlier albums (Mignonette & to an extent Emotionalism) which had a bit more bluegrass than whatever it is their newer stuff has. Saw them at the Boulder Theater as they were about to blow up, and the energy they had nearly tore the roof off the place. They’re way too big for a venue like that now, but I think they still put on a great show.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see a M&S announcement myself.
I bet u a Beer it is going to be Robert Plant and Mumford & Sons.
I feel sick… when do u think this will all be revealed? Who knows but my Acid Reflux is kickin in and I do have hives and I keep looking for my gear in preparation cause, well ya know, never too early. :cheers
I LOVE the not knowing bit, it feels like the weeks before Christmas when I was ten. Will it be a Barbie or will it be a sewing kit? Will I love it or feel surprised? And the endless speculation is just so much fun…who is that? What album? Hold on, aren’t they touring elsewhere, oh look, they are performing two weeks after TBF only three hours away…maybe…I love it. The final door will be great don’t get me wrong but this bit is special and it makes everyone talk to each other…by the way, I called Robert Plant and Mumford and Sons too so I guess that means you owe me a beer…can you please get on my We Want Alison krauss bandwagon? Cause she never tours in Australia and I desperately want to see her. Wishing and hoping sometimes comes true…
Get on the Al wagon! I am there !! She sounds wonderful live and has such control. She has played many times for TBF and I miss her beautiful voice. You never know. :cheers
