Each Tuesday is a Blue Grass Music Jam. Here is evidence that it appeals to people of all ages. This little girl joined in to sing a couple of tunes with the band.
The light was quite low at the Heritage Center, and I'd forgotten my tripod was in the car, so I rested the camera on a railing, and hoped for the best.
I did have to remove some noise in PS.
The "High lonesome sound" of Bluegrass is experiencing a resurgence. If you get the chance, check it out! Every decade or so a movie will cause a surge in traditional music. Also it was real big in 1976, when we Americans celebrated our bicentennial year.

I think cropping the sides of this photo would have improved it.

I am from Kentucky and I love bluegrass music, I am so glad people are keeping the art alive . The lighting is a little strong on the gitar player but i understand that it was out of your control. stage lighting is always bad for a photo . you did very well i am giving you a 10

Hm I don't see much of a trend here, or I don't get it =\

But the guy with the guitar seems a bit to bright, and the other guys are too dark. Don't know if the guy in the far right should be in the photo?
