bluegrasstafari at SNWMF in 06

for this years fest Snake Oil Medicine Show from Ashville North Carolina
there CD bluegrasstafari is kick ass -bluegrass reggae style and put on an entertaining show and are real good musicians snakeoilmedicineshow.net

Oh please Al...
Their music has as much to do with reggae or Rastafari as Jimmy Dean's Pure Pork Sausage.
The Meters, Neville Bros. or Wild Magnolias would be a far better choice for SNWMF.

remember there is no reggae in the festival name but there is world and Ashville NC. is in the world -be it a third world country- so ---
Herb, hey I did'nt ask for Hot Butter Rum String Band !
see ya in 06
One Love
I keep trying to hit up one of your shows in SC keep missing,
so I guess I'll see ya up north

Thanks Al...I guess I'm just a reggae specialist, but I love the New Orleans sound...AND I play in a roots country honkytonk band as well, so I can't really be considered a 'reggae elitist'...but I'm not a big fan of bands that combine a hodgepodge of genres UNLESS they can really nail the styles they're bringing together...and unfortunately it seems that these days too many of the self-declared 'world beat' bands are jacks of all trades & masters of none...
Anyhow, Midas will be @ Ashkenaz on Fri. Jan 13 w/Root Awakening, so have some good luck that day and put it on your calendar...
Respect, HD
