Yup, long time ago but it was a treat. Funny story, I went to see him play his Banjo, but when that show was on, my travelling buddy brought me off to another event and I missed the Doc.

Later I saw him along with some other pickers playing tunes on the flatop. What a treat. He said as he was playing some hoe-down "low gear" then he went through the gears getting faster and faster till the other pickers had to drop out. Quite a show.

My friend that day never expected to meet the Doc, but while passing a stage we saw him talking to some folk singer ( Mike Seeger? ), and as we passed by my friend greeted the Doc who then invited us over. They chatted about folk stuff, Autoharps etc etc, and we all then parted, the Doc going off with his guide person and we to our next show.
