TBF Artist Wish List...who would you like to hear at future festivaaaaals?

Festivarian Events Telluride Bluegrass Festival
21

A lot of the bands I want to see have already played TBF - no harm in bringing them for another throw, right? :thumbsup

Donna the Buffalo
Gillian Welch/David Rawlings (their set in 2005 still goes down as one of my personal favorites_
The Waifs
Railroad Earth (ok, everyone wants these guys back!!!)
The Gourds (if only to hear Gin and Juice live)
John Butler Trio
Spearhead
NEIL YOUNG
Thievery Corporation (yes, a total stretch for TBF but these guys are one of the best live shows around and they are from my hometown, Washington DC)

22

I thought I’d throw out some people that I’ve seen in previous years as well.

Spring Creek
Sarah Jarosz
Leftover Salmon (I’ll agree with the every year thing!!!)
The Gourds
Great American Taxi (even if it’s just a nightgrass set)

23

I agree with Tell Tom, I have always wanted to see Paul Simon playing T-ride at sunset - outstanding!

Also, a big :thumbsup to Neil Young as well as RRE

others I’d like to see:

Old Crow Medicine Show
The Everybody Fields
The Raconteurs
Elvis Costello
Todd Snider

Bring back:
The Avett Brothers
Crooked Still
Del McCoury
Bela and the tones
Sarah Jarosz

24

Big ditto for RRE - I try every year. Also, Acoustic Syndicate would be great - don’t think they’re playing these days, but they did play my TN fest last summer and just nailed it as usual. The Everybodyfields would be a fine addition - old friends of mine who have played the TN fest a bunch. They played Bonnaroo this year - cheers for the home town kids!

25

Yes, the Everybodyfields played an awesome set at High Sierra as well… They’d be an awesome fit for TBF!!

26

RAILROAD EARTH – including a Saturday Night Sheridan Nightgrass show!!!
Neil Young
Robert Plant & Alison Krauss
Levon Helm
ACOUSTIC HOT TUNA – including a Thursday Night Sheridan Nightgrass show!!
Elvis Costello in a special set with Emmylou

John Prine in a special set with Mac Wiseman!!
Robert Earl Keen
The Grascals
…and…a Strength In Numbers Reunion!!

Somebody said BIG SMITH! :thumbsup

I don’t know if Telluride is ready for BIG SMITH :eek, but I would vote early and often for them… Never seen em live but I got some nice shows from BluegrassBox (RIP). They would do well late night…
