2nd Annual Morehead Old Time Fiddlers Convention

The Morning After String Band - July 29, 2007

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unbelievably I woke up several times through the night hearing old time music being performed. I'd love to have gone over there and listened but my old body was just too tired. Wait till next year though. I was able to set up my tent about 200 feet from the big tent where the main stage was setup for the shows but most of the jammin' took place under the same tent. A new friend and opening performer for the convention, Sarah Wood was one of 4 people I found still under the tent jammin'. Believe it or not, it was about 6:30 in the morning and this group had been there all night long. Sarah and the 3 others are real troopers in my book. You have to have a strong passion and be willing to throw sensibility to the wind or you will never do something like they did. These are my kind of people and they really turn me on. 

You guys are incredible. I went back & packed up to leave, than brought the camera over to tape them for awhile before my drive back to St.Louis. One of the guys had split by the time I got back, so there were 3 left, that you see in the "Morning After" video. I'm kind of proud of the fact that this was recorded about 7:30 Sunday morning and after my 415 mile drive back to St.Louis, this clip was posted here on the website by that evening.
