Smokey Greene Passes

I think most of us hate change, we resist change, when it comes to my Bluegrass passion i just can't deal with change. whether it's in a bands lineup or maybe a festival moving to a new venue or ceasing to exist. I get pleasure out of remembering my time listening to a particular band or in knowing a place will look the same, have the same feeling. i'll be anticipating seeing familiar faces, hearing remembered music, eating festival food and feeling this is where I belong. So I'm saddened to know change has happened once again with the passing of one of the great gentlemen of Bluegrass, Smokey Greene. He wrote songs everyone could relate too and learn from. He had a decades long career and could be counted on to move you to tears, smiles, laughs and a good feeling overall. I know for me Jenny Brook just won't be the same without him. But change is constant so i'll have to deal with it and remember Smokey as he was up there on the stage giving it his best for all of us.
