    January 20, 2021 | by John Lawless

    With 2021 beginning with the pandemic still in full force only more so, the question is what do we do with ourselves now? You've probably already binge-watched every TV series you weren't too excited about in the first place. If

  • From The Side of the Road… A rose by any other name

    January 13, 2021 | by Chris Jones

    I do my best to keep up with the latest goings on in Bluegrass Today, from recent births, deaths, new releases, and scheduled surgeries of the bluegrass stars. Sometimes one particular article will stand out or really engage my full

  • Word substitution software makes a hash of Kentucky Arts Council press release

    January 8, 2021 | by John Lawless

    We all make mistakes. No one in the business of words can avoid a silly typo, or a careless turn of phrase. Veterans of the print world especially recall when such slips would hang around to haunt them forever. These

  • From The Side of the Road… 2021 Bluegrass Knowledge Test

    January 6, 2021 | by Chris Jones

    Happy New Year! I believe I said that last week, but I figure if I say it often enough it has a better chance of being true.  It's time for a New Year's tradition around here, and that is our annual

  • From The Side of the Road… Goodbye 2020

    December 30, 2020 | by Chris Jones

    This will be extremely short, just as I hope and pray the end of 2020 is. I was going to list all of the most positive developments of 2020, and that was even shorter than this column is.  Instead I've composed

  • From The Side of the Road… odd Christmas traditions of the bluegrass stars

    December 23, 2020 | by Chris Jones

  • From The Side of the Road… bluegrass paternity settled, once and for all

    December 16, 2020 | by Chris Jones

    Just after the 2020 presidential election was called (the first time), I wrote a column here about how we'd all need to find new subjects to argue about just to keep us off the streets, or off of Facebook, Twitter,

  • From The Side of the Road…. bluegrass pandemic goals vs reality

    December 9, 2020 | by Chris Jones

    Bypassing Christmas for the moment ("and so, as Tiny Tim observed . . ."), we are approaching the time for year-end reflections, top 10 lists, and other ways of cataloging and looking back on the year 2020. "Yuck" is the

  • From The Side of the Road… Hallmark Christmas movies with a bluegrass twist

    December 2, 2020 | by Chris Jones

    Last year around this time, I offered up some potential Hallmark Christmas movie plots with a bluegrass element, because, you know, we all need the money. Last year, I had no idea how much we'd be needing the money. I'm sure

  • From The Side of the Road… Thanksgiving 2020 edition

    November 25, 2020 | by Chris Jones

    Thanksgiving is upon us, and for some it's a time for reflection on all we have to be thankful for. For most, if we're honest, it's a time for eating as much as humanly possible, saving no room for pumpkin
