Live Bluegrass Music Shows in Autumn

We are well into Autumn now and Halloween is quickly approaching. The nights are getting very cool but at least for now the days are mild. I reckon the warm weather will hang around for a few more days but that's just about it for the outdoor music festivals this year. Fortunately there are a few indoor venues where we can still catch some live bluegrass occasionally.

Rattlesnake Ridge in Carter County, Kentucky is one such place. They are having a show every other Saturday (mostly) beginning on October 02 all the way up through May of 2011! One show so far. I went over there last weekend and saw David Carroll and New River Line. On October 23 Scott Tackett and Kentucky Sunrise will be there. I saw those guys at the Elliott County Tobacco Heritage Festival a couple months back, great stuff! You can check out the schedule of bluegrass bands for Rattlesnake Ridge at Rattle Snake Ridge Live Bluegrass.

I recently learned about a place in Clay City, Kentucky called Meadowgreen Park where they play a lot of bluegrass music. I haven't visited Meadowgreen Park yet but I definitely plan to. The Glen Ritchie Band and Darrell Winkleman & Mountain Echoes are going to be playing there tomorrow and they have lots of other bands scheduled for future Saturdays.
