atechical,Had all week to recover from Pemi while at work, and am off to the CT River Valley BG Festival this weekend in Moodus, CT. Maybe you're going to that?
Never heard Smokey Green at all. Got sucked into a marathon jam (8 hours) while he was on, and never even found the stage area until the next day. But heard he was good.
Blue Ribbon Bluegrass is a great album.
