I guess you missed this post:
Whats your favorite Greensky song ?? I know their so many great songs they did . One of my top 5 favorite got to be Paul Simon’s “Gumboots” . I heard they played that at Nightgrass this year . I camped at the high school and I have never heard a crowd that loud after a night grass show . It must have been steller !!
Saw the night grass show! It was the high light of TBF 2015 for me.
:burn :burn :burn :burn :burn :burn
greensky nightgrass for sure was a highlight of the fest but i’m leaning towards sam bush’s set as being my # 1 pick…mostly cause it was my first time seeing him play.
got to meet greensky at the cd signing during the fest…and of course which band member prints his first name upside down on my handguns cds…oh paul…LMAO!
fave tracks are always the newest for me. leap year and burn them for sure
what are the chances we’ll get another greensky nightgrass show in 2016? i’m guessing they are pretty much a for sure for the festival stage…right?
also if someone finds a copy of the sam bush set online please post info here! thanks!
Me too, me too, me too 
Whoops. This one got buried in the pile of sets to process. Just found it the other day. Enjoy

Nice, thanks for the link! I haven’t listened to that show since that night, sounds real nice. Making me even more excited for their 3 night run in Denver, starting tomorrow!!! :cheers
Oh this is good to hear, it was pretty much my TBG highlight 
Soling, thanks again, not just for this show, but for all the recordings.
Like that! Thank you!! :medal
Since we are discussing taping here, and there are many Neil Young fans out there. here is some news of interest. Seems Young and friends have finally come out with a portable music player named PonoPlayer that can store and play FLAC files. This means that most of us tapers may no longer have to convert FLACs into mp3s to play on portable devices, and lose 90% of the sound quality in the process. You can read about it here.

Now if we can get him to Telluride so that we can test out his player, eh?
My understanding of the player isn’t quite so simple.
I’ve read that it uses a proprietary codec similar to flac that makes it loss-less, but it would only play those sold under it’s label. You could buy songs by artists that it has under contract.
You couldn’t use it to play flac files.

That being true, it would certainly limit the market for this device. i would think they would have a hard time selling these if all it could handle would be proprietary files from selected contracted artists. Music fans tend to get their music from various sources. Even I Tunes is fairly flexible now.
My hope is that at least some of the revenue generated goes back to the artists.
Wrong Tom. I am a Kickstarter backer and proud owner of the Neil Young Limited Edition # 170/500 Pono player. It will play ANY music file format from DSD to lowly mp3. The sound will drop your jaw. You have never heard anything like it.
Stereophile magazine just named it the digital device of the year, beating out digital players that cost 3-4X as much. I rarely use iTunes anymore, and am slowly building my hi-res music collection.
If any of the tapers want to put their 24-bit recordings up, instead of converting to 16-bit, I wouldn’t mind. :wave
Happy to be mistaken. :thumbsup
Maybe it was a beta version that I read about a long time ago, but I’m glad I was wrong. :cheers
THIS IS ONE OF THE ONLY BANDS THAT I FIND MYSELF LISTENING TO THE MOST !!
Me too, me too!
