I'm grateful to have just one other bluegrass musician within 20 miles. <BR/><BR/>madcap- It was so hard to put words to exactly what it was I was feeling, but it definitely was there. <BR/><BR/>pablo- "Crowd impaired" is an understatement with me. <BR/><BR/>Sorry no pix, I was bummed that I totally forgot to bring my camera for the party, etc. <BR/><BR/>Yup, the whole thing is that most of the people in that crowd, excepting the friends I was with, were probably blissfully oblivious. Oh, to be so ignorant and carefree...<BR/><BR/>FC- that little jumping episode really lifted me, saved me from an even deeper funk. I should get me a trampoline!Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07879771115420282834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10304963.post-1152191940904015952006-07-06T08:19:00.000-05:002006-07-06T08:19:00.000-05:00Do not lose the urge to jump.Do not lose the urge to jump.R.Powershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04905593499136090763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10304963.post-1152140385361736322006-07-05T17:59:00.000-05:002006-07-05T17:59:00.000-05:00"crowd impaired" is good.We need pix of you on the..."crowd impaired" is good.<BR/><BR/>We need pix of you on the trampoline.<BR/><BR/>I share your uneasy feelings.

Rural people used to have what they called "music parties"at their homes. The stage would be a flat bed trailer and food was served picnic style. The parties were held at night, and were so crowded that you had to park along the road and walk. The music was great. I can still hear the fiddles and banjos. I haven't thought of this in years, thanks for reminding me!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
