Did anyone tape the rockygrass performances on main stage or wildflower?

I got some of Saturday and most of Sunday. Working on it. Sunday sounds great, I was a little experimental Saturday running 3’ high up front and it’s maybe chattier than I hoped. My recorder stopped due to thermal overload near the end of Tony Trischka, which sucks, great ending with Bela and Michael Cleveland. Got Watkinses, Steep Canyon, Rihannon, Sammy. Sunday missed the very beginning of Under the Rocks and got everything after that. Check back for links. Setist help appreciated. Punch Brothers are kind of anti-posting AFAIK so download this but please don’t re-post the link or files anywhere. It won’t be there forever.

Not enough question marks to warrant an answer, but no I was at Daniel Donato on Friday.

You said that you got everything after Under the Rocks, so were you able to get Tim O’Brien? I would really appreciate is if you could put a link for it.

Tim O’Brien
Also not particularly encouraging of recording and posting so don’t repost. And as always, set list help gratefully accepted, the biggest chore of this is trying to figure out 200 song titles.

Did you possibly get the Howley Brothers set on Sunday? It rained late in the set and not sure how that impacted any recordings.

11

Yes, probably the hardest set as far as song titles, and pretty short songs. Still tracking.

12

Thanks. I’ll see if I can help with the set list. I’ll watch for a posting when you’re finished.

Howley

And here it is, with the highest success rate on song titles of the run. Some bands make it easy, some, well, they never say what song they are playing.

If anyone has any insight as to any of these bands being open to being on Archive community audio or starting a Live Music Archive page let me know and if they are furious about these shares also let me know. Thanks!
