Way to go Silver Dollar City! Bluegrass shall never die so long as I have my say so in it. :D
thats great!! they do have a great festival..! Glad to see them reconized for their effort.
yay!!! way to go! Its always nice to see that SDC has done that well and see their name in print
I play bluegrass once a month with a jam group in St Louis and I love it. Someday I hope to be able to go to the festival, and understand, and pick up some techniques, and/or tips for the bluegrass guitar. I have played mostly rock/ classic rock in a band since 1994, and am looking forward to learning a new style. I unfortunately missed the first day of the festival this year, but what I saw was great.
The Bluegrass Festival has been our favorite to this point (OTC a very close second) and am glad to see them get this award...Great job SDC
