Punch Brother's Play Bluegrass!!!!! It's like a junior version of what is the House Band. There is SOOOOO MUCH TALENT in these bands, it's just silly. Oh yeah, it would be nice to see Yonder how they were 5 years ago. But if it's the new stuff...I think I might take a nap. Sorry, but there is something about putting distortion on a beautiful Colling's acoustic guitar. It just ain't my cup of tea.

Sigh. The SplitLip/RRE show last night just made me that much more excited about TBF.
Who's doing a countdown? How many more days?

You can find a countdown on my web sites! Thumbs Up

Thanks Tom!!!

The more I've been thinking about it, I think I am pretty excited to see Béla Fleck & Toumani Diabate...that's like a once in a lifetime kinda thing.

Also, any Night Grass show that I am lucky enough to get in to has me pretty excited too. Can't wait untill they give us some info about it tomorrow...

I saw Bela play with Toumani (an a few other fantastic musicians) this past Friday... you aren't kidding, that set is going to be phenomenal!

David Byrne and Elvis Costello for sure.
Jenny Lewis just put out an awesome album, and I saw Conor Oberst last year in Saratoga NY and he rocks.
His CD from last year is great.

I'll have to add Crooked Still to my list, I'd never heard of them till they were put on the TBF lineup, and I'm loving their sound!

Really?  I would have to disagree with the not missing anything part.  I respect and am looking forward to seeing every one of those bands/artists!

Telluride House Band | Emmylou Harris | Tim O'Brien | Todd Snider | The Steeldrivers | Works Progress Administration | Mike Farris & The Roseland Rhythm Revue

Nightgrass: Punch Brothers Play Radiohead (That might be incredible)
