Matt is going, but Kingman has astonishingly little bluegrass music this year.

[dcab-l] The Country Gentlemen Tribute Band

The Country Gentlemen Tribute Band was absolutely outstanding last night as they performed in the Weekend Bluegrass Concert Series in Herndon, Virginia.  They come so very, very close to the sound of the "original" Country Gentlemen that if you close your eyes you get the feeling that you have gone back in time.  This is especially so when listening to Mike Phipps sing the lead as the late Charley Waller had.  The music was "spot on" and there was a lot of humor too that added to the evening.  It was a special evening with a band that is continuing the musical legacy of the legendary Charley Waller & The Country Gentlemen and doing so with great respect for both the music and the original band members.  Original band member Bill Yates started this tribute band some years back and passed away about a year ago, but, his vision continues today thanks to the current members - David Propst, Mike Phipps, Mark Clifton, Mike Connor and Rick Briggs. Many thanks gents.
