Straight-ahead traditional bluegrass with David West - banjo, Mike Nadolson - guitar, Tom Lee - bass, and Tommy Marton - fiddle.
This is a summer music series held in an old red barn in what I believe is a county park. I haven't yet seen the place, but it is reportedly a great venue for all sorts of non-electric music. Gilles Apap has played there, Jim Wimmer and Tom Wolverton have done their part. Everyone survived. People tend to come early with picninc or pot-luck dinners and a jam session is scheduled for 6:00 PM. The VLB start their sets at 7:00 PM. Families invited. Sounds like fun.
