World of Bluegrass - to get your free access

[birdsong]

The World of Bluegrass is another concert shifted to online formatting. For the past few years this event has been held in downtown Raleigh, NC. We miss having it but, the online format is pretty nice so far especially viewed on our 46" TV. The "Ramble" began a couple days ago. If you are interested in seeing/hearing the performances, I am pasting in a lengthy clip from our local (PineCone) music association sponsor.
Note: there is a wide variety of music being performed, not only bluegrass.
Note 2: I know there's a lot of admiration for Molly Tuttle and Sierra Hull. They are playing together on Oct 2, ~5:30 Central time.

Access is free - you register via Eventbrite and get a pass to see performances via Swapcard. I apologize that this note is a bit long but there's info you may want to see ahead of time. "hot" links do not transfer to AGF posts so I've pasted the main one further down. More apologies if this was posted earlier. I scanned posts the past 30 days and did not see one.
