If you haven't heard of the 23 string band, it's not for lack of their trying (i.e. your not getting out enough), because these boys have been setting fire to our town for quite some time with their Bluegrass stylings. And People are paying attention, they have burned the stage at many notable events lately including the Master Musicians Festival, the Forecastle Festival, the International Bluegrass Museum’s River of Music Party (ROMP), the Terrapin Hill Harvest Festival, the Kentucky Bluegrass Music Festival, and the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games.
Members include real life eastern kentuckians Chris Shouse and Curtis Wilson, as well as infamous louisville picker Dave Howard and violinist Scott Moore (from the Saredren Wells quartet, and Another 7 Astronauts). You can catch them Friday at the hideaway at 10 (we originally listed on our events calendar that it was at Longshots, so please make note..) and don't bother counting the strings..
everyone loves Dave Howard
Thanks John! Yes, everyone does love Dave Howard. Hope to see lots of friends and new faces on the 15th.

I LOVE 23 String Band. They have contagious energy, and boy can they sing and play--especially the banjo picker, Curt.
ReplyDeleteBut I have to say one thing about your message, John, it IS BECAUSE of lack of trying that someone hasn't seen them. So, your sentence should read "it's because of lack of trying....that someone hasn't seen them" I like the sentence after. Cute. And far be it from me to mention the lack of capitals, etc. SORRY! When teachers of English get old, they also get harpy. But, your message was good. Thanks.

well Helen, i meant it isn't for a lack of trying on the band's behalf.. meaning they are doing quit a bit lately.. but, hey, i'm no english teacher..
ReplyDeleteand now is a good time for to admit that YES i know my work is riddled with grammar mistakes, anyone who owns any Louisville Is For Lovers album knows about this. i do apologize. i suppose i need a copy editor around here.. but if you guys can bare with me, i am trying, and promise to work on it.
It's true, everyone loves Dave Howard. :-)
