We went to see the Osborne brothers at an outdoor venue and it got rained out. We went back behind the stage and found their bus and Bobby visited with us, signed autograph and sat on the bus steps and played us some songs. Put on a show for 4 of us.

@jimbond1430: I'm glad you have that memory. All I know about the brothers is from Rhonda Vincent's "Legends" Blu-ray. Bobby was quiet most of the time, while Sonny talked profusely. BTW, I guess you know that Sonny sold his most-prized banjo to Aaron McDaris so that it would be played, rather than let Smithsonian Institute put it behind glass. November 28, 2016 Aaron played on The Voice on TV because they put out a call for "the best banjo player" for one scheduled song. In January that year I recorded snippets of a local RV concert and afterward Aaron took a picture of me with Rhonda, then I had my picture made with Aaron. Now I wish I had added those photos to the end of the video I posted here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bp2uZ3yNgqt6kM0

Loved their music for years. Not only are they great singers, they are great people. Many years ago my mother worked with Bobby. They also have a nephew (Dean Osborne) who has a bluegrass band and he is pretty good also. A few years ago Dean's wife's grandmother passed away, a lady I had known my entire life, and at the funeral home my mother was talking to Dean about her working with Bobby years ago, and Dean invited her and my dad and me to the annual Bluegrass singing they have in Hyden, and gave us tickets to it. When we arrived, Dean picked us up in a golf cart and showed us the buses of some of the singers there, if I remember correctly, I believe there was Ralph Stanley, J.D. Crowe just to name a couple. Dean took us backstage so my mom could meet up with Bobby again. That was a VERY good day, a day I know I'll never forget, and I'm sure my mom and dad will never forget it either. Every one of those singers we met were the warmest, friendliest down to earth people you'll ever meet.

I dont want to say which one acted in what way due to respect for all the great music they have done, But one was all smiles, handshakes and talked to each fan like long lost friends, The other came across like he could careless, was in a rush and didnt want to speak to fans. i ll let you guys guess which one is which. lol
@shirleystann60506 жыл бұрын
ClassicRockfan79 No matter who it was, and I can guess, you don’t know what was going on for him that day. One of them is a lot more vocal than the other ( and likes to tease) and not always in a nice way, but you’d never in a million years catch the “unfriendly” one saying anything unkind. On an audio only performance from DC, the “friendly one” said about their 3rd part singer who had only been with them for a few months that he hoped he would improve. Then added that was unfair, but you cannot “unsay” something like that. It was horrible. I was embarrassed for the 3rd part singer and this is 30 odd years later. Give me a closed mouth any day of the week over that..... Also, I’ve read other things about how both of them are great guys so it may well have been a very bad day for the one who “couldn’t have cared less.” Too, with all the fans and admirers they spoke to in all their years of performing, there were bound to be some bad days in there-for both of them. They were away from home sometimes 200 nights out of the year. Don’t know where I read that...

@Katragew You're welcome! After Bobby went solo, I heard him on the Grand Ole Opry and his voice broke twice. I was afraid he had lost his voice, but then he recorded a duet with Rhonda Vincent, "Midnight Angel", and his voice is true, he punches every syllable, and I love it! If you haven't heard it, you should download it from Amazon for 99 cents. The clip catches a little of the harmony, but doesn't get to Bobby's solo verse. The Rhonda Vincent album is "All American Bluegrass Girl".
