They were biting up in Amelia…

Sometimes it’s rough duty being the Queen of Bluegrass Music.

This past weekend at the Central Virginia Family Bluegrass Festival, Rhonda Vincent was viciously attacked on stage by an unidentified member of the class Insecta in the phylum Anthropda. She got bit by a bug.

I’ve heard about being bitten by the bluegrass bug, but I doubt that this is what Rhonda had in mind.

There are a couple more videos from the Amerlia festival on YouTube, including one of Hunter Berry getting dunked in the lake for charity.
