Playlist for May 11, 1999

Tonight's show featured a bunch of bluegrass and acoustic music.
This was highlighted by a wonderful new release on Blue Plate
Records of Bill Monroe and His Blue Grass Boys live from Mountain Stage in
1989.  We played nearly the entire show straight through, which generated
lots of interest from the listeners. On a sad note, we played several songs
that were written by Shel Silverstein, who died this week at age 66.
