Musicians As Gods.

I seriously wanted throw myself at this guy’s feet, Dennis Caplinger, who played the mandolin, fiddle, banjo and dobro like a celestial being. (With Tim Flannery and the Lunatic Fringe) It’s the same way I was tempted to hurl myself at David Crosby when I heard him sing - I didn’t care that he was an older, fatter David Crosby. As God is my witness, he still has the voice of an angel.

We went to a concert/fundraiser tonight and all I can say is, what an amazing group of musicians, including Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead, who by the way, looks and sounds damn good. There is nothing like good old Kentucky bluegrass music. Nothing.

Here’s some bluegrass for you by Dennis Caplinger:

Here’s the updated version of this post - today. Kat - the lead singer sang Angel From Montgomery…angelically! She was so good. I once had a friend named Betty who sang with a band. Her rendition of Bonnie Raitt’s Angel From Montgomery made me cry every time.

Author Penny Watson is coming today for a visit! I can’t wait. :P

    This made me smile. My dad (aged 82) plays all of these instruments plus a harmonica… with a band on in an east Texas cowboy church. The folks bring their horses to church (outside) and afterwards have dinner on the grounds and barrel racing. :-)
