Blu Bop

Discovering new music & new bands is a thrill that comes second to none. Its almost as exhilarating as visiting a place as breathtaking as it may be unlooked for. However, music wins as you cant cherish a place except in a photograph whereas music can be savoured to your heart's content and when one desires.

Watching the video of a Phish concert in Austin, the lead Trey Anastasio talks of how they drove for hundreds of miles to Austin because they heard Béla Fleck & the Flecktones were playing there. And so I came to discover Béla Fleck.

Ever hear the electric banjo?
