Grey Fox 2011
20 miles from the house and yet Bender (Pinky) Melon still camped for 3 nights... why? Uh... cuz it's fun. Although too old for the endurance sport of learning / listening by day and picking all night, we certainly made a fair attempt. Highlights included an excellent improvisation workshop led by Matt Glaser, a speed/tone/accuracy workshop led by Dan Miller, Chris Thile and Michael Daves on the main stage, the Masters stage appearances of Chris Thile, Michael Daves, Tim O'Brien and Sam Bush including a comedy show / guitar schooling by Red Stick Ramblers' Chas Justus, fine set by Del McCoury, the moon, the weather, noodling with strangers at 3:00 am most of whom were sober and a regroup with a friend on Friday and lots of friends on Saturday after spending a day and a half with my lonesome self in a giant crowd.
