Some people have complained about the venue but I can honestly say I've been in worse toilets than that place. Besides I much prefer seeing real rock'n'roll played in this sort of place than some swanky hotel in Las Vegas... Anyhow, the best thing for me was seeing the Remains - a group I never thought I'd ever see. The Pretty Things I'd seen only a couple of months early so... but once they were up on stage weren't they fantastic. The cool thing about it is that before the Remains came on I was upstairs ordering drinks at the bar when Phil May started talking to me (after hearing my English accent). After five or six minutes of small talk he looked at his watch and said, "We'd better get downstairs now. I don't want to miss the Remains." It shows, I think, that he really is still totally into the music which is great. Above all though it was great to meet so many cool people, and let me tell you the BOMP!ers that I met were absolutely the coolest!

Columbia put out a CD called "White Country Blues" a few years back. It's 20's and 30's country stuff. Also great is the "Bristol Sessions" 2 LP set that the Country Music Foundation released about 10 years ago. And Billy Altman (ex-CREEM writer) put a nice set together for RCA called "Are You From Dixie?-Great Brother Acts From the 30's". Most of the bluegrass originators are still playing. All summer long there are bluegrass festivals all over the Smokies.
