Just got back from a great weekend at a little festival in Maine where it
rained buckets Saturday afternoon/evening. Fortunately, about 100 of us who
stuck around were treated to an intimate, single-mic barn concert that was
just perfect. I heard and met Chad Graves (no relation to Josh, Tim) who is
with Valerie Smith & Liberty Pike. They are high energy, and Chad wails. He
swoops into the single mic with all the aplomb of his namesake. Great guy,
awesome picker (sings too), and he plays a beautiful, feisty Rayco with
figured maple bright as fire.
After the show Chad suggested I get my MA-6 and picks; we swapped axes,
picked a few tunes and were in short order joined by several of the
evening's performers in a terrific jam. I got schooled AND I had a blast,
all at once!
