Rob Ickes & Trey Hensley

• Rob Ickes: resonator guitar, harmony vox;
• Trey Hensley: acoustic guitar, vox.

Rob & Trey are hot pickers, and while their repertoire might lean towards the Hardly Strictly side of the demarcation line, I doubt any bluegrass fan would fuss much about seeing them in a festival lineup. I know I was psyched, I've been trying to see them for a few years now!

I was a little worried beforehand that with only two guys, the crowd would be inattentive and talkative, but we lucked out … almost everyone around us was a good listener today. Yay!

One of the guys tucked a riff or two from Norwegian Wood into the very end of the jam Fire on the Mountain, just before they segue into the conclusion of Friend of the Devil. Very sneaky!

Big thanks to Ting for the photo gallery!
