The fourth annual (unofficial) meeting for worship on the grounds of the free Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival will be in front of the main stage, which in previous years was called the Banjo Stage. (If you’re standing there looking at the stage, there’s a little hill to the left. We’ll be near the top of that, and as close to the stage as I can get when I arrive.)

We’ll have an hour of unprogrammed worship. I’ll bring my blanket, my picnic basket and a bucket of Legos. If you bring your blankets, we can stake out more room for the rest of the day. It will be elbow to elbow people by noon. Food is available at the festival.

The exact lineup for Sunday has not been announced, but it will include Hazel Dickens, Emmylou Harris, the Del McCoury band, Earl Scruggs and Doc Watson. More details about the festival at www.strictlybluegrass.com. More about the meeting for worship at robinmsf.blogspot.com.
