I think people are forgetting that Derek Trucks is in the house. If he sits in with any band I want to be there. I think the “sit in speculation” is better as we know that the NG lineup will be similar to other years, and awesome…but who will sit in?
I think with Punch Bros playing late on Sunday lineup that there will NOT be a PB nightgrass, at least not on Sunday. So that leaves the SOH open for??? I think there will be:
Dusters Thursday Palm, LOS Friday Palm, GSBG Sat Palm
Yonder CC Wed, maybe a Friday at SOH?
The rest is who knows? It will all be good, I just hope that there aren’t 2 at the same time that I really want to see.
Greensky will be Thursday at the Palm. They are playing a festival in Bend, OR on Saturday, so they’ll be headed to the airport after their mainstage Friday.
Billy Strings tour page lists him in Telluride on the 20th & 21st, then off to other shows. I wonder if that means he’ll be part of Firstgrass. Doesn’t leave much opportunity for him to do a Nightgrass show though
