Just a few observations about the fine show they did here last night-
-A three hour show, not counting the intermission. Tickets were $23
after the TicketBastard charge, but can't say you didn't get your

On the larger question, so to speak, bluegrassers not infrequently are
willing to pay top dollar at the record table for stuff they
could easily buy for less at retail in order to 1) feel better
about shaking and howdying with the artist (they may worry about the

close drop everything and see their show.
Two of the best days and nights of music I've seen in a long
