And more. That’s not even the whole list. I learned about this in October and still haven’t seen everything. No booking a flight or braving the oppressive crowds or getting weed blown in your face by a guy who introduces himself only as Figleaf. Just you and the music.

Here’s the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass 2013 Webcast Archive. Have a good time.
