Tonight I went with a friend to see Jerry Douglas at BB King's in midtown. I'd almost forgotton what live music was like. The crowd was as I expected: a little older, grayer, paunchier. Blugrass nerds.
It was wonderful watching someone who is without a doubt the best at what he does in the entire world. I know that music appreciation is subjective but the people who know the dobro who say Jerry is not the best are few and very far in between. I am in awe of what he does.
The stage was filled with players so dedicated to their instruments that they didn't have to sing. A night of extremely talented musicians in midtown.
