Nightgrass!!!

[englishmartin]

So now we have the full line-up (and what a line-up!) What does everyone want to see for the nightgrass line up? What do you think we'll get?

Predictions:
Wed - Yonder @ Conference Center
Thu- Leftover Salmon @ Sheridan, Nickel Creek @ Palm
Fri - Yonder @ Sheridan, Keller & The McCourys @ Palm, Peter Rowan @ Fly me to the Moon
Sat - Greensky @ Sheridan, Dave Rawlings Machine @ Palm, Chatham County Line @ Fly me to the Moon
Sun - Punch Bros @ Sheridan

Personally I would love to see Yonder, Salmon and Greensky at the Palm so that it would be easier to get tickets. Can't see Yonder playing anywhere other than the Sheridan though. Perhaps for the other two. Also wouldn't mind if Greensky were on a night other than Saturday so it didn't overlap with Salmon closing the main stage, as damn, that would be a tough show to leave early...

Question marks work a whole lot better:

"Nightgrass???"

... I guess you could've thrown in an exclamation point in the middle

"Nightgrass?!?"

(sorry, this is just a pet peeve of mine)

Assuming we need to know about your pet peeves is one of mine??????

Agreed with Greensky at the Palm.  Everyone was up and dancing in the rows and aisles last year.  Theatre setting didn't take away from the experience at all.

Point taken. I considered using a single ?, but I figured it was pretty common knowledge that nightgrass would not be announced until early April and that !'s would not result in confusion. I wanted to use !'s to convey my excitement. Exactly three !'s as I feel that denotes a maximum level of excitement and that a fourth would have been superfluous. On reflection the ?!? sandwich was probably the way to go.

The Palm was a great venue for Greensky. I wasn't so sure when I walked in but it was perfect. And the trading of instruments with other/former band mates was outstanding.

Also, I enjoyed seeing Pert Near at FMTTM even though they didn't make the main stage. Maybe we will get another artist that just plays Nightgrass.

No worries, you can disregard the punctuation police, it looks like there's a method to your madness

You should try it sometime, it's very cathartic ... wait, you just did!!!

LOS did jam with SCI at last years nightgrass show that replaced Mumford.

And they played a killer show at The Palm in 2012 will Bill Payne.

Please schedule Greensky & LOS Nightgrass shows at the Palm. Pretty please

I would really like to see a show at the Sheridan, didn't win any lottery last year, though the shows at the Palm were perfect for me. I went all 3 nights. Though what I did not know was how the headliner overlaps with Nightgrass. That's rough for me. My fear is that Salmon will take place on the same night as the Greensky Nightgrass show....

Nightgrass and the closing act at the mainstage overlap a bit, but not too much. Let's say Greensky does play a nightgrass show Saturday night. You would still be able to catch all of Salmon and head over to Greensky. You'd miss some of Greenksy, but would likely still get there in time for the second half of the first set.

It always feels like nightgrass shows tend to start...erm...later than the schedule might indicate...Musicians.  

So, if you stay for the headliner, you shouldn't miss too much.

Though, honestly, all bets are off for Punch Brothers on Sunday Night. If you're lucky enough to score those, you've got a tough decision to make. Del/Alison and the House Band...wow!

I still might sneak out early, Punch puts on an mind-boggling show there.

Good luck drawing those tix!

Kind of predictable but we got our first nightgrass confirmations:

Yonder @ Conference center on Wednesday, Sheridan on Friday.

Super excited for the conference center show and already praying for those Sheridan tickets!
