Living Legend

Next month, Natalie MacMaster is returning to my town for a concert, but a few days later someone even more important will be here.

Ralph Stanley.

Yeah, the greatest living bluegrass musician. He's coming here. I have a chance to see him before he retires or dies (the dude is over 80 now).

I'm not his biggest fan, and I haven't heard much of his music, but I know a good chance when I see it. It's not every day a living legend performs in your hometown.

I think I might try to go see him, if I decide to forgo seeing Natalie again.
