night possibilities

“We will announce the 2009 Night Grass schedule later this winter. Make sure you’re signed up for our “Notes from the Planet” email newsletter for all the latest.”

I think we have all seen this under the night grass section of the site and being that spring is only a few days away. I was wondering which acts you guys think or are hoping will have night grass shows. For us a chris Thile show would be a good time and we would be crossing our fingers for a walk on by some of his old band mates.

:peace

Look for the nightgrass announcement in April. Usually when it happens. You can count on Railroad Earth Nightgrass on Thursday, hopefully at the Sheridan(probably).

Is the nightgrass lineup comprised solely of acts that have already been confirmed at the festival (YMSB, RRE, GSBG, etc.)? Or are there acts brought in just for nightgrass shows?

Confirmed acts for fest…yes.

Most of the acts playing Nightgrass also play the festival but historically there has also been the occasional act who plays at Fly Me to the Moon Saloon on a Wed or Thu who is not playing TBF.

Ohppp I stand to be corrected. As you can see I love to be helpfull but I am no expert… so perhaps I should hold back next time and let the vets take it :flower :cheers Ya learn something new everyday…

Acts to be announce on 3/31 . . . I have no inside scoop - just read the Nightgrass page :wink:

You mean I can stop obsessing with checking the website/forum daily looking for nightgrass rumors and news…YES!!! Let the true madness begin… :cheers

Just found this on their My space page.

Oakhurst

That’s exactly what I was thinking! Lets hope our mutual brain waves will start working on Chris Thile’s unconscious and pull on those Nickel Creek heartstrings … :wink:

Chris and The Punch Bros. are playing Sunday night at The Sheridan Opera House. Hmm, start pulling! :thumbsup

Everybody close your eyes and focus. :vibes

15 bucks for Oakhurst?

Heck yeah! :dance

I think I’ve paid about $15-$25 every time I’ve seen them, of course a couple of those shows have been with them opening for others.

I love me some Oakhurst. They are one of my favorite new bands in CO.

oh…and :wave everybody. First post.

Just think if you get your way and all the beer is free 15 bucks will be no big deal

“Chris and The Punch Bros. are playing Sunday night at The Sheridan Opera House. Hmm, start pulling!”

Where did you see that? I went to both the Sheridaan as well as the Punch Bros, site and there is nothing scheduled

Well, now is as good a time as any to initiate the newbies into the beer buying tradition at the KOTO beer tent.

(I have no inside info BTW - just a hunch based on prior year’s experience).

If I am incorrect that Thile/Punch are playing Sun night at the Sheridan then I will buy a beer at the beer tent at 12pm Thu - if I am correct then you buy me a beer.

How does that sound?

If UselessJo is not in, I sure am. Hell either way we both win. good beer and good music with new friends

:cheers

Ok, we have a bet if UJo is out.

Right on! :thumbsup
:cheers

Oh hell no Wilco I’m in :lol Someone said beer! :lol
:cheers :cheers :cheers
I think buying beers should happen anyway, we cant lose.
