    Telluride Bluegrass Festival

    Although I as of yet, I havent attended this festival, my business partner and
    his wife were able to go back in June and they brought back some wonderful
    film footage with them. As for my Wife and I, we plan on doing the festival in
    2007. My question is, has anyone on this forum had the chance to attend?
    and if so please share some of your memories of this famous event.

    Thanks, Dave...

    Well, you know I haven't been there, but it sounds like a great event. Do they already have a listing of who's going to appear?

          Being from Colorado originally, I've always meant to make the drive up to this festival, but just never have. Heard many good things.

          Someday.

          Well, we're safe for now. Thank goodness we're in a bowling alley.

            Dave,

            Just curious, but do you like pure instrumental bluegrass?

            Just curious...

              Dave,

              Tried to e-mail you but it bounced on me. Is your e-mail up to date?

                Sorry for not getting back sooner, First off, the 2007 artist program should be available around the 1st of the year. and second Keith, I really enjoy
                Instrumental music as you already know yet for this type of music I tend to lean towards the story lines that some of the artists create. David, Tony Rice
                appeared at the 2006 festival and from what I've heard is a regular. What
                a talented artist! I've left you an E-Mail giving you my address. Chris heres
                to someday for you! from what I,ve heard, this festival is well worth the time and money.
                Thanks to Everyone for your Input

                  Me? Yeah, sure. I love a lot of live music, blugrass and jazz especially. It loses so much of the soul in recordings.

                    I could'nt agree with you more Chris, Live music has the breath of life that studio
                    recordings just can't duplicate. Another place to check out great artists playing live
                    is at Wintergrass in Tacoma Washington at the Sheraton hotel in downtown Tacoma.

                        I know it's not Bluegrass, but one of the best (music-wise) festivals I've come across is the Jazzfest in New Orleans. But it had gotten so popular and so crowded and become such a zoo it lost its attraction to me. It'll be interesting to see the reports of the 2007 event. Here's a link if you are interested.

                          Thanks for the link David,
                          I was talking to Steve at work today, He's putting together a video of
                          his trip to Telluride 2006. Bella Fleck was one of the featured artists
                          that played there and from what was explained to me Belas image
                          Being superimposed into the mountains while they are changing colors sounds
                          very tranquil.
                          Later, Dave...
