[net.music] newgrass revival and bela fleck

jsc@nbires.UUCP (08/08/83)

eddie stokes from n. carolina seems surprised that bela fleck should be invited
to "an onstage jam session" at the telluride festival here in colorado.  since
they are usually one of the top 2-3 professional bands to play there (Monroe and
Hot Rize, sometimes Peter Rowan), that's like saying wow, Jerry Garcia is so
good on the guitar that he was invited to jam with all these other guys at this
rock festival...

p.s., the list of bands at the Adams County bluegrass festival north of Denver
in late August makes telluride look amateurish.  'nuff said..
