Oh hi it’s the sound of me pleasantly sliding into middle age. I went to the Carnegie Hall show. Very NPR but fucking amazing nonetheless.

I like some of Bela’s solo banjo albums but I was like 16 when the Flecktones were really on the scene and that was never going to be cool then. I could probably get into them now but is it even worth trying?

I'm still not really in love with the flecktones thing, but the current album is more like acoustic prog bluegrass supergroup and it's really good. Dense, compositionally interesting, non-stop impressive picking, etc.
