Troutfisher Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 This weekend I attended one of the best premier bluegrass conventions in the country, the SPBGMA (Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music in America) convention. I saw J.D. Crowe and got to do a lot of picking in the Sheraton Music City Hotel. There were also a lot of good places to eat as well. Here are some pictures I thought you guys might like.

Super User Alpster Posted February 5, 2008 Super User Posted February 5, 2008 Looks like an awesome trip. I was there about 30 years ago. LOL I've been meaning to ask about your guitar. What do you play? I played for many years, a classical guitar major in college and recorded an album in the 70s (it's vinyl, that's how we did it in the old days). The last guitar I owned was a 1975 D28 Martin (maybe the sweetest dreadnought on the planet). I sold it a few years ago. Arthritis took my hands and I can't play anymore, but I have some wonderful memories of performing and jamming with friends. Ronnie Quote
