The folks at Planet Bluegrass tell me that last year both Telluride and RockyGrass sold out several months in advance. So now is the time to get your tickets for 2008. The tickets are on sale now with special holiday pricing that constitutes a $30 discount from the regular price. You can purchase tickets online at Bluegrass.com or by calling 800-624-2422.
