Saw Chris Thile and the How to Grow a Band last weekend! myyy goodness :D very talented guys, of course. chris thile looking and sounding as good as ever. and bryan sutton? :eek: his guitar playing skills almost match up to chris on mando...

i was so sad when nickel creek announced their break, but now i know chris really has something amazing going for him again.

good luck to chris!


:p

I know what you mean!! It's really disappointing that they're taking a break, but at the same time, I'm mondo excited about the amazing stuff that Chris is/will be pourin' out!!

I saw How to Grow a Band with Brian Sutton last night at the Joe Val Bluegrass Festival in Framingham, MA. What a great show. Chris was awesome and they sounded great together.

I saw them at the fesitval last night too, amazing! It was hilarious when they played Ophelia right after The Gibson Brothers. Were there any tapers?

[cgarby]

I agree. Htgab's version of Ophelia was much better but then I'm not really a Gibson Brothers fan. I haven't seen any shows on etree. There were definitely some tapers there. Hopefully something will surface. I can't wait for them to come back to Mass. when they play at the Iron Horse in Northhampton.

[veritas00]

Haha, their version was definitely better. I just got tickets for the Iron Horse show too, can't wait!

Was anyone at the buffalo show at the 9th? they totally rocked out, and bryan sutton was an amazing addition. loved the opening band, sometymes why.

[Mockingbird]

Yepyep! I was at The Buffalo show...7th row center section. *and* Chris said he liked my scarf(It has a mandolin on it)

Yeah. It rocked.

[SaraLiz237]

that is sooo cool! i was front row center :D yeah it was amazing. didnt get to meet him after so i am defintely jealous. well even though i did meet him with NC in rochester haha.

anyway....how'd u like sometymes why?

[Mockingbird]

I met him after NC in Rochester, too...And Sara. I'm not sure if Sean ever came out, but my Dad got antsy and I had to leave *sigh* This one was more formal, they all sat behind a table and everybody lined up, as opposed to them wandering around in a crowd of people.

I loved sometymes why. I've been putting off ordering their CD, but after realizing i'm listening to the song samples from CDBaby almost every day, I figured I should probably just order the CD(I only wish that Crayola song was on it, but there's two recordings on youtube, so it's ok). Now I have to wait for it to come. They were hanging around after, as well, and they were great. Lots of fun.

[SaraLiz237]

That is so funny! I probably saw you in Rochester cuz there were only like 25 ppl out there, right? i met Sara too (she was amazing in person!) but i dont think Sean ever came out either. *sigh*

i loved the Crayola song too! it was adorable! my best friend bought their cd when we were at the show, but i'm still waiting for her to burn it for me :mad:

i reallllllllly need NC to come somewhere around here on the farewell tour....

[Red Zep]

Yes! The Crayola song was awesome!!

Go buy it yourself.

The Crayola song isn't from the Sometymes Why CD, it's from Kristen Andraesson's(sp?) solo CD, unfortunately.

Yeah, there were only a few people out after the Rochester show. It just meant those of us who were there got more from them, and they got out earlier(which i'm sure they liked!)
