The Peter + Jerry show would be cool but.... $80/ticket and it's DURING Sam Bush Band set on Saturday. I wish Planet Bluegrass could give us a nightgrass show!

Seats went live for these shows yesterday and there are still a good amount left:

I have heard murmurs from two separate people (both of whom I trust to be reliable) about a potential GSBG Firstgrass show being announced in the next day or two. If I end up being wrong, sorry for getting any hopes up, but had to see if anyone else had heard similar rumblings?

Please be right!

Haven't heard or seen anything, but that would be great.

According to Mtn Village's contract w/ PB + Telluride, here's how Firstgrass is written

3. First Grass Concert. Producer shall provide a “free” concert, consistent with the level of the
Bluegrass Music Festival in Sunset Plaza on the Wednesday prior to the Festival, from 5:00 p.m.
- 8:00 p.m., to kick off the Festival. Producer shall be responsible for the cost of the band, stage,
sound/lighting, three porta-potties, and advertising, which shall include, at minimum, 50 posted
posters, advertisements on the Festival website, inclusion in any Festival programs and multiple
email blasts beginning at least sixty (60) days prior to the First Grass Concert. The Town shall
also assist with providing advertising for the event in such manner and amount as determined by
the Town. Bluegrass shall be responsible for securing a license agreement from Telluride Ski &
Golf, LLC for the use of their open space at Sunset stage for the free concert.

Seeing that they haven't advertised any FG shenanigans, it would be violating a few terms. Maybe there is an exception or that PB could do it from the main stage. Would love to have GSBG there to kick off solstice weekend!

I guess I was throwing in the term FirstGrass on my own. What I had heard was a Thursday night GSBG show in Mtn Village (was picturing it like Leftover Wednesday nightgrass spot the last few years). May not actually be an official 'FirstGrass' show if it happens. May not happen at all, but would be awesome! In my opinion their Nightgrass shows always blow their festival set out of the water

[TonyBurkenstocks]

Amen to that!
