Meeting my nephew who loves Bluegrass there and will be there from May 23-28.

Silver Dollar City Bluegrass * Barbeque Festival Schedule

I have no idea whether this will be good or something for retirees (in Branson, MO.).

Has anyone heard of any of these bands? Are they good? Do you think my 23 year old nephew and his gf will enjoy these bands?

the only one I've heard of or eve seen is Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver. they are super tight. more traditional bluegrass.

I don't see them on the lineup but I know they play Branson a lot - Big Smith. They are one of my favorite bands. They are a blast and really know how to whoop a dance floor. they are big with the younger crowd in the AR, MO, NE OK area. they were a mainstay at Chesters in Fayetteville back when I used to hang around those parts. don't pass up on their live concert if you see them on the bill.

Thank you guys for letting me know there will be some good bands there. I am taking my nephew and his girlfriend as a graduation present. They are leaving for contract jobs in Russia in a couple of months. I guess that what college grads do these days. I thought moving to Dallas was a big deal.

They are on it for May 24th & 25th. I'll make sure we see them. I saw some of your other posts on this board & think my nephew would like some of the stuff a guy named redneck hippie listens too.

He was telling me he liked Hank Williams III who I know from the Wonderful Whites of WV.
