Newport Fest Bands

Newport Fest was a ton of fun and I'll encourage everyone to get out next year.

Till then, here's a sampling of the bands who played there this year.

Good video. Not surprised at the abundance of groove rock.

There was a mandolin player in there who looked familiar. Who could it be ... can't think ... I wonder ... oh yeah, I know him!

Glen Skaggs.

I think that's Glenny Scaggs.
I didn't realize he was so buff.

I thought I saw both Ricky Scaggs and Glen Skaggs --- Ricky sat in with the Jug Busters and Glen was playing with somthin, somthin "Express" band with our buddy Brian Cox from Snowville on the banjo.

I was actually kidding. I was talking about another mando player I recognized.

I liked Clover Hollow. The covered one of the tunes from that Mark Knopfler/Emmylou Harris album. One of my faves.
