Greg McCarroll writes: I think `man of sorrow' will be a good ambassador for bluegrass Yup, it is. I'd just like to add that I saw it performed by the real band (i.e., not George Clooney lipsynching) one week ago. It was bloody brilliant. I think I even have a photo on the digital camera of them around the microphone doing the harmonies. No fake beards, though :-) There are rumours of a Soggy Bottom Boys tour in 2002. There was a big concert of the music from the movie last year, and it was recorded by some famous documentarian. I'm looking forward to the release of that. On the subject of music (despite the Subject: of movies) ... anyone here into trad. Irish instrumental music? Nat

Yes, very definitely. Unfortunately I don't play anything vaguely relevant,
apart from the guitar. I'd *really* love to be able to play the Uillean
pipes. One day.
