I wish that I could get into peoples heads and understand why they don't like bluegrass. I really don't understand it. That being said, I thought this was a great review. Thanks
It's usually a knee-jerk reaction lacking critical thought. Most rock fans "don't like country" or grew up associating bluegrass with hillbilly music or 'Deliverance.' Plus bluegrass has never been cool, so they automatically say they don't like it without actually listening or getting someone to show them the virtuosity inherent in the music.

On a separate note, I'm OK with a second set Farmhouse, but squeezed in the middle of a Mike's groove?? It feels terribly out of place there. Ditto placed in an encore (8/14/15).

Regardless, I thought both Gorge shows were great. Loved the tease-fest in the second set from night one.
