Opening for Sam Bush in Colorado

HI--I'm in the bluegrass band Chatham County Line from NC and we are playing 4 nights in Colorado and I am looking to borrow/rent a decent upright for those shows. We are opening for Sam Bush in Steamboat Springs on Wed. Aug. 8th and then playing a casino in Denver on the 9th, 10th, and 11th. Let me know if you can help.

Thanks,
Greg Readling/Chatham County Line

You guys were great at Grey Fox last year (2006).

I'd gladly lend you one if it was in the NYC area.

Good Luck.

Thanks,

Hello Greg .... I'm not from Colorado .... but I've seen a bunch of Colorado bluegrass bands. Just a thought ... why not contact the Colorado Bluegrass Association http://www.coloradobluegrass.org/ and see if they can help. There's a contact e-mail for the Association on the website and lots of band websites also that I imagine you could contact to get the word out. I know there's some real friendly folks there and someone is bound to be helpful in your quest Good Luck.

P.S. You might try asking this same question over at Bluegrass Bass Place website http://www.bluegrassbassplace.com/phpBB/index.php . I know there are a couple of Colorado players that are members of the website. If you are a member there, you could Private Message them. Look at the member list there and you'll see members #158 and #163 are from Colorado. In particular, you might try Kenny Pabst of High Plains Tradition Band at http://www.highplainstradition.com/ . He's a fine bluegrass bass player and he gets around so he might be a good lead. He has e-mail and phone numbers listed on the website.
