Brance has mentioned that we have a number of fabulous Guest Contributors lined up for the next few weeks. We’ve done so both to keep new content on The Bluegrass Blog while he is away next week (on his honeymoon!), and while I spend Christmas with my family, but also to give a slightly different flavor to the site during this special time of year.

Hard news is slow during the holidays when everyone in bluegrass hopes to spend time with those that matter most in their lives, and performers and bluegrass business people alike are on vacation, just as we all are. We will continue to publish such news as does surface between now and the end of the year, but much of what we post is likely to be less specifically “newsy,” and more of general interest to anyone who enjoys bluegrass - or just plain fun!

It is possible that we will offer more opinion pieces during this time as well, many of which may be opened for general comments. We hope that you enjoy what we have in store for the next few weeks, and as always, invite your feedback, pro or con.

Brance and I send along our kindest regards for your support of The Bluegrass Blog, along with our sincere wishes for a joyous and Merry Christmas!
