doesn’t rule out special guests joining Nightgrass shows …
there’s plenty of incredible music every day … even if Cheese and Salmon each play one set, we won’t be “wanderin’ thirsty in the rain” … the lands will flow with milk and honey
I actually think that’s perfect! SCI playing an old school cheese show at sunset sounds like the perfect way to have them play the 40th to me. Plus, the headliner doesn’t always close out the night. Sam Bush is Saturday’s headliner, but he never closes.
Some peeps be a-bitchin’ and a-moanin’. I’m pretty excited about the lineup with ONE exception:
I’ve always been able to figure out one artist a day that I’ll miss 1/2 of to go eat dinner and change into my winter clothes. This year, I look at the day-by-day schedule and, with just one day’s exception (that I will keep to myself), don’t really see a dinner-break in the lineup.
I may have to change into my winter clothing at 2pm every day! Thank god my ski jacket has pit-zippers.
Plus…doesn’t Vince have his own Post-Nightgrass-Nightgrass festival as he meanders anahuacing (sp) unsuspecting campers? He don’t need no stinkin nightgrass!
Yeah Hooch, what’s your plan for managing the unmanageable @ XXXX. The CF Sticker (and CF) worked really well last year! (at least for this RaM Fanboy…) :cheers
I will preface this post by notifying all that I am a huge Dispatch fan and have been since I was in 10th grade and found a much needed and different sound than the norm. My wife and I had our first Telluride AND bluegrass experience last year… And feel in love. Not only with telluride which is a givin but, the music. It opened my eyes to something that is perfect. Don’t get me wrong, our love for the John butlers, Avett Bros, Old Crows, Yonders etc. existed but, we found something beyond that. BLUEGRASS. When I saw the lineup I was pumped. But I ask the old time festiviarians how you feel about it. I can’t be any more excited for this June and the 5 new festiviarians that are coming to join us at Lawson hill can’t be either. Can’t wait to see all of you at the festival and say hello if you see me. I will be the one doing cartwheels when Trampeled by Turtles starts jammin’!
:wave Got bit by the Bluegrass bug hua. :medal Not hard to get sucked in that’s for sure.
The mix of old and new is a trademark that has been solidified with time. The injection of something other then Bluegrass is a wonderful jolt and helps to keep our ears fresh and attentive.
I personally enjoy a mixed lineup with a heavy influence on traditional Bluegrass.
Something for eveyone :medal I am so glad you will be joining us again and again and again. Now go buy that sun hat and lawn chair!
Ferg or anyone with the time and inclination, wouldn’t it be amazing to have a download or stream of 2 songs from each artist at Bluegrass this year? It would be a great way to have a base knowledge of every band performing as there are so many and varied. I think having it approved or on the website would be even better than having it as some DL link. Just a thought and hope. Thanks!
