Susan and I won free tickets from KPFK to see the Grascals at OC Fair last night. I thought it was going to be another overly slick Nashville band but that was not the case. Top notch bluegrass players and great bluegrass harmony. Killer mandolin and fiddle players. Third song in the set the bass player knocked down the bridge on his bass. The sound guys thought the PA blew up it was so loud. It was kind of fun watching one of those "How many bluegrass musicians does it take to fix a bass bridge?" jokes play itself out. It took most of them.! They did recover and cranked out a really great set. If you get a chance to see them you won't be sorry.

Now that's a nice tight string band. It does bring to mind the joke about how many bluegrass musicians it takes to screw in a lghtbulb, though.
