| On tour with Jorma Kaukonen |
May 10, 2002 | |
| In the late spring of 2001, I had the opportunity of meeting Jorma Kaukonen, while he was in Boulder CO playing Nick Forstersš E-Town radio show. What followed thereafter was a chance to teach at Jormašs Fur Peace Ranch music camp in the spring of 2002. This was a really fun camp to teach; Rory Block and Jorma also taught that weekend. Fur Peace Ranch is situated in the beautiful southern Ohio hills, right along the Ohio/ West Virginia border, near the Ohio River. During that camp, Jorma asked me to go out on his summer/winter touring for his new and wonderful all acoustic folk/country blues recording just completed in Nashville. Never the one to pass up a chance to play with one of my heroes and along with that, another opportunity for just plain fun, and to see what it is like to live in a real tour bus, I just had to say yes. There didnšt seem any other answer than that! So, starting in June of 2002, I will be touring these dates and places with Jorma , Barry Mitterhoff on mandolin, and me on acoustic dobro and wiessenborn slide guitars-- the bassist is yet to be determined. This promises to be a wonderful music adventure, with lots of chances to meet new folks, musicians, artists, you name it! Here are the dates: June 06/13: The Bottom Line, NYC, NY July September Dates with blue asterisks are Jam Grass dates. At these shows Jorma will perform his set with Sally and Barry . Other acts also performing will include some, if not all, of the following: String Cheese Incident, David Grisman Quintet, Sam Bush Band, Peter Rowan & Tony Rice and the John Cowan Band. --Sally |
