It is great to see someone playing Kentucky Colonels material. What is interesting, too, is that Roger Bush, the bass player, was in the Country Gazette, the band that went over as part of the Flying Burrito Brothers to Europe and with their bluegrass interlude in the FBB set made bluegrass so popular over there. By the time the New Kentucky Colonels came over in 1973, Europe was ready for more excellent bluegrass, and they were very well received.

I see that you are planning to play "Don't Let Your Deal Go Down" by the Country Gazette part of the Flying Burrito Brothers. Was that song very popular in the US? It was a big hit in Holland, and in some of the other European countries it did quite well, too. Just curious.
