I just got home yesterday afternoon from a week at the 83rd Annual Old Fiddlers Convention in Galax, Virginia... so I still hear a lot of imaginary music, (probably will for a while) but I was excited that our guitar player scored a 5th place finish in competition this year. He played an homage to Norman Blake, more just to create an entertaining moment in performance than to construct a blistering contest piece. The judging panel must have appreciated it.
(that's me on bass, by the way... a little past my bedtime, but before I turn into a pumpkin!)
*on the subject of blistering contest performances... someone already posted our Saturday night final round. Audio is a little bit fuzzy, but consistent. It's a pretty good representation of us on a very good night. Kind of a controlled explosion-
(New River Bound finished in 11th place this year, moving up one spot from our 12th ranking last year... Galax is a tough contest. I'm not sure how we ever broke the top-10... somebody must have been sick.)
