This weekend was the 28th Annual Targhee Bluegrass Festival.
FRIDAY
The weather was cold and rainy. The bands
were pretty good but not great.
SATURDAY
The weather was rainy again. Two bands were
outstanding: Bela Fleck & Abigail Washburn
and Keller Williams with The Infamous
Stringdusters. In spite of the rainy & muddy
conditions, I don't think I have ever seen
quite this many people standing down by the
stage at any Targhee music event.
The String Dusters performed a tribute to
Jerry Garcia and their entire performance
consisted of their rendition of Dead songs.
Really nice!
SUNDAY
The weather was absolutely spectacular. Cool
and a sprinkling of beautiful clouds in the
sky.
The bands were good today. The standout
bands were the Earls of Leiceste and Lake
Street Drive. The later was a rock & roll
band making their first appearance at
Targhee. The lead singer,
Rachael Price, has
quite a set of pipes.
