Pickin and Grinnin

You may not be aware of it, but Professor Share is a well-known bluegrass musician, which provides the department with endless opportunities to tease him. And here's your chance to sample his talents:

Summer greetings from the DownTown Mountain Boys!

We hope you will join us at the Adventure Bluegrass Festival this weekend (July 28-30). This wonderful festival takes place in a spectacular setting: the Skamania County Fairgrounds at Stevenson, WA, in the heart of the Columbia Gorge, and on the banks of the Columbia River. We'll give a free concert at the nearby Skamania Lodge at 3 p.m. (Saturday, July 29), and will perform again at the festival at 8 p.m. that evening, right before the weekend headliners and bluegrass legends, The Seldom Scene. For more information (including ticket prices and directions) see: http://www.acousticsound.org/!ab_home.htm

We'd also like to encourage you to attend the British Columbia Bluegrass Workshops in Sorrento, British Columbia. We'll be teaching and performing there during the first week of that camp. For more information, see http://www.musicworkshops.ca/Bluegrasshomepage/Bluegrass_home.htm

We wish all of you a summer of warm weather and hot picking!
