Is that dickens on the mandolin? Stick around for a while and you'll figure out what I'm talking about. And as a musician I'm sure you'll appreciate my "welcome aboard the crazy train" welcome...

And VBN is always this enthusiastic... lol:

Don't get me wrong, if the band doesn't get you pumped, you don't have a pulse. But, when it comes to the banjos and all that, no thanks

 

[USAF_Vol]

Nice, Rocky Top always brings a smile to my face!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Abeachvol]

I still dream about that

 

[Voodoomonkey]

Nice job. But whatever happened to "Down the Field". Better fight song IMHO.

 

[BillVol]

Never gets old, 7. Great version!

Hey there!!

The guy on the mandolin is Donnie Cassell from Knoxville, who playes in 2 or 3 bands. Good solid player. The GREAT player on the dobro is Lou Wamp, one of the very best period, who is in the same league with Rob Ickes & Jerry Douglas. Watch some of our other You Tube 22 concert videos, and he really shines. Also plays great fiddle and cello on them. We are all in our 60's and still love playing concerts from time to time. Just dial up You Tube and type The Cumberland Trio in the search box. LOVE the Crazy Train thing!! What instruments do you play and what genre?

Play In Tune On Time,

Jerre

What kind of drugs was that Smokey character on? I need some of that.

He was on a Rocky Top high. Happens to me at every home game. :dance2:

 

[hohenfelsvol]

The smell of bourbon was on stage.

 

[MWR]

Good stuff.

I'm curious. Do Bluegrassers go to school somewhere to learn how to stand while on stage? The proverbial "Bluegrass Stance".

 

[volchamp23]

I almost got mobbed when I played that on guitar at a frat party in memphis...and it was my own frat....

I dont think they liked it too much but only a couple death threats
