Having just seen the Campbell Brothers and Katie Jackson, along with Denise Brown here in Minneapolis on Saturday, I can attest that they are a well-deserved nomination. I purchased the Sacred Steel video, along with one of their CD's and was greatly impressed by the quality of music that they project.
I talked with Chuck, Phil, and Darick after the show, and more pleasant gentleman you will not find anywhere. Chuck shared a few tips and tricks with a couple of the people in attandance, and will be getting tickets for Robert Randolph, who will be appearing here on the 18th of February.
Good Luck on the nominations. Let's hope that they get some well deserved recognition.

Thanks everybody. It's a team effort. We all work hard and really enjoy documenting this music and presenting it to the public. The Campbells and Katie are wonderful people and have an insightful perception of the big picture. I've learned a lot and have made some great friends. The journey continues...
Best,
Bob |
