    LOL Yes I sensed the sarcasm. I would have been disappointed if I had got none! :)

    Anyway, as to my comment about it being a good one to watch... although it would be grand to see it live... I was referring to the PBS airing as the show to watch. No long travel involved that way! I'm also almost as excited to hear Mary Chapin Carpenter will be singing as I am about Alison.... almost!! LOL

    I bet AKUSWOW is excited about it, too. While the rest of the Nation will be watching this show on PBS in March, WOW's station will probably take the opportunity to rerun the 101 chicken recipes show again!

    "and I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt.... Rounder has never celebrated a 40 years anniversary before! ;^) "

    Ain't it restful to have at least one undeniable truth out there! ;D

    akusgal: That is a very good question... and I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt.... Rounder has never celebrated a 40 years anniversary before! ;^)

    As Tal has stated, they did do some things for a 25 year celebration. I have a 25th anniversary Folk, and a 25th anniversary Bluegrass CD. AKUS's "Every Time You Say Goodbye" is part of it, as well as The Cox Family singing "When God Dips His Pen Of Love In My Heart". Also the best cover of "Golden Rings" I have ever heard, by the Dry Branch Fire Squad.

    49 songs in all on the Bluegrass CD... great stuff!

    Rounder had a pretty big celebration at 25 I think. That Youtube of Grisman, Rice and Alison (and others whose names slipped my mind) doing EMD is from that celebration! At least that's what the uploader says.
