Usually quiet before dark. Expect to end between 7-8 each day.

What is the time frame of the festival? How late does it normally go?

If he re-enacts that video then he has SERIOUSLY taken "Hardly Strictly Bluegrass" to heart. Perhaps too much to heart. For the record, I have yet to hear preachers weigh in on preachers wearing thongs.

According to my weekly Slim's/GAMH e-mail he was listed as a performer. Oh and Elvis Costello, Ricky Skaggs, and Emmylou Harris were added as well but that wouldn't be considered a huge surprise, but f'in Hammer!?!? DAMN!

They've added a bunch of acts. I won't trouble you with all them, but I would like to point out that one of the additions is MC Hammer.

No Gillian Welch this time. Bummer.

Plant/Kraus are back.

3 months ago Meg H  said

Plant/Kraus/Burnett appear to have fallen off the list.
