I miss the festivals and especially the bluegrass festivals. This comes with an admission that I have only a very small amount of love for bluegrass. I play mandolin and other mandolin family instruments while playing mostly classic country from the 40s ,50s, Honkey Tonk, and soft rock when not playing classical.
Nothing like a bluegrass festival to bring out the pickers! The audience often has musicians with skills to rival some of those being paid to play. Read me JAM, JAM, AND MORE JAM.
A great festival takes place the end of August in Manchester Center, Vermont. The Green Mountain Roots & Bluegrass Festival. Wonderful festival (excluding 2020). Last time there in 2019 when it was in the 90s everyday and only dropped into the 80s at night. Don't let Vermont's nudity laws fool you. People, to my amazement, failed to shed their cloths regardless of how uncomfortably hot it was and my wife and I had no desire to be the only ones.
