A "Little" Blue Grass Music from the Mountains

I thought I'd post my humble little (and I do mean little!) video of the blue grass musicians who were playing on the porch of The Old Mast General Store during our trip to the North Carolina mountains a week ago. Please excuse my very amateur abilities at video recording with a regular digital camera. I'm still learning this technology. But this is the real deal mountain music, although very abbeviated. (Notice the gentleman playing the guitar who nods his head at me while I'm recording....he got a nice tip from us that we dropped in the white tip bucket on the table next to him!)

Although it was some pretty rusty filming, it sure is enjoyable to hear how authentic mountain culture is alive and well in America. Pin It

  2. Very, very cute. Your camera did a cute (if short) job on this. Good work!

  3. Thanks for posting that, my friend! I grew up with musicians, and I love a good fiddle and banjo pickin'. If I had been there, my feet would have been tapping!

  4. Bridgette, Judy, and Debby, I think that ANYONE would happily stomp their feet when listening to this totally American, good-time lovin', music! Thank you for the pat on the back...I sure needed that! I was questioning whether or not to post my attempt at video recording and feel so much better after your support. I'll do much better next time for you, my dear blogging friends! ~ roz
