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…

I’ve gotta agree – I just love this build-up. My bro and I will be attending our sixth straight Fest, and staying/hanging with Festival family who we didn’t even know six years ago. This build-up to the final door being opened ranks right up there with waiting for pitchers and catchers to report to Spring Training, and baseball’s opening day! It’s timed perfectly to get us through the bleak winter! I would LOVE to see the Jayhawks added to the bill – anybody dig them? Other favorites include Lyle, Lucinda, Los Lobos, although I haven’t heard any of them mentioned. I would die if they announced Neil Young. And I sure as DEL(L) hope some permutation of the McCoury clan ends up in there – wouldn’t be Telluride without 'em.

fivetornadoes · February 4, 2015, 1:04am

a few pages back in this thread someone mentioned tedeschi trucks band. they are playing red rocks on saturday june 13. fingers totally crossed they get added to the TBF line up. it only makes sense!

Don’t fight it. Just let it happen.

BillyBeru · February 4, 2015, 3:38am

The real shock is that your picture is finally properly aligned

Australian_fan · February 4, 2015, 6:21am

We have one Pete Frane to thank there! He fixed it, I have no idea how he did it but at last I’m facing the world face to face :wave

Australian_fan · February 4, 2015, 6:22am

:cheers I’m drinking to it!

BillyBeru · February 4, 2015, 6:29am

Most important question - who do you sound like the most?
Donna from the Waifs
Vikki from the Waifs
Kasey Chambers
John Butler :eek :thumbsup

Australian_fan · February 4, 2015, 9:19am

Yeah definitely Kasey especially when she sings Not Pretty Enough!

I LOVE Lucinda and she has a new album. Yeah, it’s great, the slow tease is fantastic and I love the way the community builds here, I know I’m going to get to Festival and spend every day saying hi, finally we meet… :wave

Skindr · February 4, 2015, 3:48pm

I am hopeful for M&S.

psuruns10 · February 4, 2015, 4:15pm

I saw Robert Plant just got added to Lock’n. So he is doing the festival circuit this year.

mountainjam · February 4, 2015, 5:25pm

Please add Sturgill Simpson!

completejohn · February 4, 2015, 6:15pm

Gonna see the Avett Brothers tonight. First time I saw them was in T-ride, and I seem to remember that it was an early spot during the day. These guys have progressed SO much - ain’t it time to bring 'em back to the Fest? They could be a huge Saturday night closer!

Lisa_Delia · February 4, 2015, 10:43pm

My daughter Lauren would just be a puddle if the Avetts were there this year. I’d love to see that!

ratcub · February 5, 2015, 6:15am

I just read (from ibma.org) an article about Robert Earl Keen’s bluegrass record coming out February 10.

In the article he was asked if he’s doing bluegrass festivals and his reply “MerleFest and Telluride”

I can’t remember how long ago he was at the TBGF, but it will be nice to have him back…

here’s a listen to the music.

ibma also has a nice article on Ralph Stanley http://issuu.com/ibma/docs/february_ib-2015/5?e=5237038/11255913

swander99 · February 5, 2015, 5:06pm

:thumbsup I hope REK brings Natalie with him!
Would also like to see The Wood Brothers added, and certainly The Avetts! :cheers

Hope_Lin · February 7, 2015, 2:58pm

SWEET!!!
THANK YOU!!!

rossstevens · February 9, 2015, 5:59am

I would love to see Steve Martin & Edie Brickell grace the Box Canyon !!

Linds · February 9, 2015, 6:08am

I would love to see them return, too, along with the Steep Canyon Rangers. The Steeps haven’t been to Colorado since RockyGrass last summer. That said, they played Telluride (with Steve and Edie) two years ago, and RockyGrass last year, so it might be too soon to get them back this year.
