Waldo Festival

Sunday
Well we have enjoyed another Bluegrass Festival.
Some excellent bands.
As I have noted before, this is a much smaller festival than Palatka. The effect of this is that people are friendlier and things are more laid back (not so tightly organised).
Most of the bands we have seen also performed at Palatka, however this time we had seats on the second row and could see them clearly.
Carolina Sonshine are quite entertaining, they do nice vocals, the lead singer has a really good voice.
Bluegrass Brothers Are very entertaining, they are a "high energy" band, concentrating on mountain music, either bluegrass or old time.
The Moron Brothers are a great comedy bluegrass act, catch their river boat video although I don't think it is actually their own boat. They have some very funny stories and some nice bluegrass songs inbetween. Well worth listening to.
Nothin' Fancy, though already reviewed, thought I would put them in here as well. We really enjoy their style of bluegrass, it is fun yet well delivered. They are also excellent musicians.

Although the temperature has been up in the 60's and even 70's at times, Friday night was really cold, below freezing and since the Pavilion is outdoors, we all froze as well, so it was a good job the music was good. Sally even took a hot water bottle to cuddle under her blanket!!
There have been several groups pickin' during the week. Despite invitations, I seem to have spent most of the time with our old crowd, guess I still lack confidence, still I am getting better at it. Biggest problem is remembering all the words to a song. Practice is needed really badly, don't seem to get enough time, even when we are supposed to be doing nothin', we seem to be too busy.
This morning there is a Gospel Hour, so I guess we will join in that.
Later today we are going back to Connie and Jim's, looking forward to our visit to Epcot.
We have also signed up for another festival at Palmdale, way down in the south, near Lake Ocachobee.
