Tony Rice Unit- Blue Railroad Train- Bluegrass & Chili Festival- Tulsa, Oklahoma- September 7, 1991

The evening was September 7, 1991. The place was at the Bluegrass and Chili Festival in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The Tony Rice Unit had been scheduled to play an afternoon set, but a pouring rain caused that performance to be canceled. There was still the evening set to go, and fortunately, the weather cooperated and Tony and the band were able to play. Tony remarked earlier that afternoon that it's a shame that the afternoon set was cancelled, because he was really wanting to play.
The rains did cause another problem. The sound system had gotten wet, and the sound would go from normal, to sounding like someone had thrown a blanket over the speakers. Check out Jimmy Gaudreau's mandolin solo and the 32nd note riff he puts in!

I love Jimmy Gaudreau's 32nd note riff in his break! Awesome!
