Hey Michael! Great show as always. You said Scruggs was a traditionalist and Flatt wanted to do covers, but I think it was the other way around.

Pennsyltucky ain’t so bad. Cigs are cheaper (lower sin taxes) and Pittsburgh’s a great arts, deli and record store town. Maybe I’m a little rosy today what with sunshine, a few hours of gardening ahead and my 2nd vax 12 days ago. Dating and going out seem less abstract concepts now.
