Here is our band Southern Star Bluegrass last week at the Rollins theatres. We do a short rendition of Happy Trails and then fire off Orange Blossom Special. Steve Durrwachter is our fiddler and I think he's about as good a bluegrass fiddler as I've ever played with. I'm the banjo player in the band.

Spectacular! I thought the version on my Rocky Top CD was a virtuoso performance ... Does somebody have to stand by and sprinkle water on his bow so it doesn't catch fire? I liked those jazzy chords that you slipped in there behind him as well.

And what a sweet rendition of "Happy Trails." Those harmonies brought a smile to my face, and I'll admit, a bit of a tear to my eye. Nice work altogether!
