    I went to my first bluegrass concert yesterday (may 1) at Indian Ranch
    in Webster Ma. It was great. Hot Rize and Traver Hollow kept everbody
    glued to their chairs despite the cold weather we had. The muscisians
    realy showed their stuff by picking to perfection, their hands had
    to be cold but they did it anyway. Hot Rize did a comical skit,
    when they came out dress in old country and western clothing and
    performed as Red Knuckles And The Trailbalzers. They played their
    electric instruments to some tunes I hadn't heard in a long time,
    such as Apache (remember the Ventures). Anyway it was great !

	I saw Hot Rize the night before at the Opera House in Barre, Vt.
	They truly put on a great show!  I love Red Knuckles and the 
	Trailblazers.  I got to meet a couple members of the band afterwards.
	Great bunch of folks.

	Hot Rize and the Trailblazers will be performing at the Winterhawk
	festival this July.  I highly recommend this festival.  I've gone 
	the last two years and have had my tickets for this years for over
	a month already.

	Here is the current line up for the festival:

	Seldom Scene		Bill Monroe		Dry Branch Fire Squad

	Hot Rize		Country Gentlemen	Tony Triska and Skyline

	Tony Rice Unit		Nashville Bluegrass	Walt Michael and Co.

	John Hartford		Peter Rowan		Good Ol' Persons

    re:1
    Did you become a Knucklhead and get a Knucklehead sticker ?
    
    Jim 

    "Apache" was done by a Scandinavian guy - can't think of his name.
    The Ventures probably covered it, but he had the original hit.

re:3
    Your right, in fact the guitarist in Hot Rize said it was by
    a Scandinavian guy but I didn't catch the name. I only remember
    it by the Ventures.

    	Apache/Echo Boogie was done by Jorgen Igman or Igmansen (I think)
    
    	Guy Novello
