dank_xiaopeng posted:nice! i play bass and am learning clawhammer banjo. there's a big OT music scene in and around Ithaca, you should check it out! Most of the really good festivals are in VA/North Carolina/ West VA tho. if you get the chance, you should def make the trip to Clifftop, totes worth the drive
merlefest has been completely taken over by jam band dickshits, bulleit-sipping newscap donning broheims who still holler for wagon wheel, and the soulless moneygrubbers who feast on the trust funds of both groups
nuke the blue ridge mountains, give the proles bc rich warbeasts, and teach the dark arts of trem picking and blast beats

dank_xiaopeng posted:old time music should really appeal to rhizzoners because all good oldtime musicians constantly aspire to align themselves with iconic historical Great Men and devote themselves to browbeating and criticizing those who deviate from the correct musico-ideological line
it's really fun
also it's a bunch of corny bullshit which involves dressing up like a twat

pretty sure anyone who put on a costume for 99% of oldtime music events would get laughed out. the "americana" old crow medicine show crowd is pretty universally hated. i dont think youve actually been to any good festivals bro
