On the heels of a terrific weekend at Planet Bluegrass in Lyon’s Colorado attending the 50th Anniversary - Rockygrass Festival, I couldn’t help heading for the Fox Theater in Boulder to celebrate what would have been Jerry Garcia’s 80th Birthday.
Dave A’Bear whipped up a frenzy of fun that deeply satisfied my deadly sensibilities.
The local scene was fun to take in - I even met a few new friends and an old pal too!
Even Holm and Extra Gold also impressed with a terrific opening throwdown!
~Enjoy!
