I too just returned from Telluride a couple days ago. [For some reason, it appears my first attempt at posting this didn't go through.] In fact, I think I'm still recovering -- lower altitude & 1 hr time change are taking a toll, for some reason. Anyway, aside from a sleety hail storm Thursday morning (first day) and a touch of rain on Sunday (the last day), the Telluride Bluegrass Festival was great despite the lake of mud we had to wade through to get to our seats! I'm glad someone posted a synopsis of the Thelma & Louise workshop as my friends and I decided to watch Stacey Earle instead (**very** tough call!) But we got to see the amazing trio of MCC, SC & Emmylou Harris during Shawn's set, thank goodness. Too bad all the artists couldn't hang around for Chapin's set on Sunday. Which brings me to my question: Anyone who's seen it elsewhere have a really good memory for the lyrics to Chapin's Diva song? You can email me privately, so we can compare notes. I think I have between 1/3 & half of them from the consolidated memory of my friends and me. My email addy is kelli@fumblers.org. ~Kelli "Music.... it's the best drug in the world." ~ Sarah McLachlan - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from the list send mail to majordomo@smoe.org with 'unsub scribe small-repairs' in the message body.
