Re: Magnolia Fest In my humble opinion...she was okay......not great.
Being politically correct....she had a signer for the deaf. My question is...how many deaf go to a music concert to watch sign language and not hear the words. Hey, that is just me.....there may be many.
She told some really nice stories and her music was tight. Just was not that impressed. I heard many say the same thing.
I was amazed at how skinny she has gotten....not that this has anything to do with her extreme talent.
And she would not let anyone in with cameras. My friends were told they had to take them back to their campsites as Bonnie refuses cameras at her performances. As one of them said..."Hell, I'd rather take a picture of you than of her." And that, my friends, would not be a pretty sight.

Re: Magnolia Fest Rivernole, was the guy with the col. playing pedal steel and lap Steel? If so, that would be AJ Ghent, a superb player who has often played with the Lee Boys.

Sounds like him... almost as energetic as the Tornado Rider....(not quite, tho) And I also left before Bonnie's show was over....

Re: Magnolia Fest Igot a great picture of Bonnie hugging her guitar.
I enjoyed hearing her play as I've been a big fan for years, but she didn't move my feet like JJ and HISB.
