Good Last Saturday of the year!

Let me quickly say before I forget. High Country will ring in the New Year at the Freight and Salvage in Berkeley tonight, and if you don’t believe me, just look up the screen a bit to a very large pronouncement of that fact. Were my wife and I not in the final-stages...

Good Medicine

Have you ever hit a wall? You are moving along at a good pace, picking up speed as you go, enjoying the ride and BOOM! You hit the proverbial wall. This happened to me recently. I had been going non-stop to festivals, camp-outs, and jamming parties all over Northern...

Good Medicine

You never know where an inspiration for a Welcome Column will come from. Those of us, who write, are always on the look out for subject matter. I went to the pharmacy today to refill a prescription. I’ve been thinking about the medicines many of us take; prescription,...

Good memories of days gone by

My good friend Keith little came to visit Bluegrss Acres the first week in May and we had such a wonderful visit talking over old times and all the music we played all the good times we had in the past. we sat and talked for three or four hours, looked at a lot of my...

Good Music for a Good Cause

It’s never too early to start getting the word out, so I’d like to use today’s column to give a head’s up about Bluegrass on the Mountain, an event that Henry and I are organizing in our local area this coming fall. On October 15th, we will be presenting two fine...

Good ‘ol “Moonshine Vic”

I know that a lot of you folks in the CBA remember Vic Cearly, more often referred to as “Moonshine Vic”. Vic passed away a few years back, but he will be remembered as long as there are those of us that had the good fortune of sampling his “Mountain...

Good ol’ boys

As is my habit, I occasionally go to the Message Board and re-read, from start to finish, some of the longer, more controversial threads, almost like a narrative than like reading individual posts made over a week or two or even three. I find that by doing this...
