The High & Lonesome Ramblin' Bluegrass Thread

I religiously went to a bluegrass night at a local microbrewery for nearly a decade. The circle would gather on a big deck out back when the weather permitted. No one including the owner of the bar cared if you smoked, so I was in heaven. In the late 90s / early 00s, during the height of beaster reign, those bluegrass guys always had absolute fire headies. So I would sit out there nursing a beer and getting baked while listening to them pick for hours every week. I went for a few years while I was still underage. I also played at an open mic night, so I think they just assumed I was 21 after seeing me around so much.

I've probably heard this song played live a thousand times.

That sounds like a Charlie Daniels song.

Like half of modern bluegrass comes out of Colorado. The bands in the third and fourth videos are from your state. (Hot Rize and Leftover Salmon.) Telluride is the home of one of the oldest and probably the largest annual bluegrass festival. Next summer will be the 50th.
