I hope Simpson is in awe of those musicians.

I saw them at SPAC the other night. Mike was on fire! Such a great sound for that band.

Really nice total band sound from top artists who all also play solo and with other bands really well too. Drum is even fairly tastefully done, although still a little distracting to me personally for bluegrass -- or is this country???

I just wish I could make out the lead vocal lyrics better... Style, sure. I need to hone my lipreading skills.

P.S. Where is, and who is, the banjo player? I can hear him but not see him (except faceless in the beginning).

If you have a few hours to spare, Mike Bub never runs out of stories.

I had a chance to talk a little with Mike Bub last night when my bluegrass band, Ten Dollar Wedding, opened for Jason Carter in Flagstaff. Super nice guy.

There was some issue with Mike’s DI/monitor, so he ended up using my my Markbass CMD 121. Sounded great, as you’d expect. He played a ‘50s Kay with a removable neck, which I mistook for a Chadwick because I saw the coffin case first. Wrapped gut D/G, Spiro Light E/A.

It was small club and they played to about 100 people. Quite the contrast to the gig that preceded this one: Telluride Bluegrass Festival!
