I was blown away by the talent on stage! Adam Hurt's gourd banjo was absolutely haunting, and I was blown away by everyone there. There was an amazing variety too. I enjoyed that aspect probably more than anything. 5 stars for the music.
Unfortunately, the sound had serious problems all night. Certain microphones weren't on (one of the fiddlers played through several tunes and you couldn't hear her at all. Her mic was not on, so they only thing you heard was what bled through the other nearby mics.) Another mic was having real issues - during Marcy Marxer's banjo-uke solo, the sound was popping and scratching really bad. Several times the feedback got so bad you had to plug your ears. During most of the songs, not every musician on stage would play, but their microphones stayed on. There was one particular song where you could hear Dan Gellert's wedding ring ping on the side of his banjo as he tapped along to the tune. It was really distracting, and the sound guy didn't do anything about it. 0 stars for the sound.
The second half was a little better after the sound crew got up and tested some things, but there was still the problem with mics not being on, some feedback, and other issues.
