Ralph Stanley II and The Clinch Mountain Boys - Latest News
I'm going to the monthly bluegrass jam in Darlington SC tomorrow, 30-odd miles away. This runs for about two hours, then they have a couple of bands playing a set each. I tend not to be interested, since I am not truly that big a bluegrass fan. I'm OK with playing it now and then, but generally don't have what it takes to sit and listen to it for long stretches of time. I used to, but somehow I seem to have changed over the years.
That said, tomorrow they're having Ralph Stanley II and The Clinch Mountain Boys, with opening act New Primitive (no info on them). I thought I'd take a look through the Café to see what people think about them, and I'm not seeing much in the way of current impressions. So I'm asking if anyone has seen them recently and how they were. I think I'm getting there isn't a mandolin in the band, and wonder if that's true, too. Fiddle, banjo, two guitars, and bass. That's playing into my fence-sitting.
Thanks!
