...drummer. All this month on channel 103 of Direct TV. You can watch a Bela Fleck and the Flecktones concert for free on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. The performance is followed by a 2 hour performance by Willie Nelson.
I'm a huge fan of theirs, and watch/listen to anything of theirs I can get a hold of. In this performance there is a steel drummer, Bassonists, and even an English Horn player. |

I saw the program to which Todd is referring. Bela has taken the banjo and adapted it to many genres. One cannot comprehend the amount of talent that is exhibited by the musicians who are playing with Bela. These guys are innovators, and I feel that every musician should watch the program. Any description I give of the concert would not do it justice. |

I've seen that show about a year ago. I agree they are all excellent musicians and innovators. |

I think Bela Fleck and Paul Franklin should record an album together. |
