I am also curious about the Mark O’Connor thing… What happened? Will I never get the chance to see him play bluegrass in the flesh? :huh He was such an amazing fiddle player in the bluegrass world, I find it had to conceive he’s left that path forever…
If I could have my way (ie if I had magical powers :rolleyes :lol ) I would have a Telluride One Time Special House Band featuring Mark O’Connor, Tony Rice with his voice back and John Hartford.
Also, I want to see all my banjo heroes on stage together and an awesome all star jam with each one of them: Tony Trishka, Tony Furtado, Scott Vestal, Alison Brown, Pete Wernick and Bela Fleck (I wouldn’t say no if Steve Martin wanted to pay tribute at some point too… :flower )
And then Alison Krauss with the old Union Station formation (Adam Steffey, Alison Brown, Tim Stafford, Barry Bales) playing her old bluegrass numbers…
Ahhhhh, I guess I made it to Telluride around 20 years late… :eek :lol :lol :lol
Bright shining faces with big smiles, more men in tutu’s, warm and loving hearts, tolerance of others, a full moon, lots of hugs, a fast cold river, a hot scourchin sun, a watergun fight, a soft gentle rain and last but not least, some kickin music. :cheers
