"Making Plans", The John Jorgenson Bluegrass Band

"Making Plans", performed by The John Jorgenson Bluegrass Band (www.johnjorgenson.com) at the Institute of Musical Traditions (www.imtfolk.org), Rockville, Maryland, USA on September 30, 2013.
In his review on the IBMA website, Taylor Coughlin says: "On July 25, the too-fresh-for-a-bio John Jorgenson Bluegrass Band indulged the crowd at The Station Inn with the Seldom Scene hit Wait a Minute, written by Pedersen, Whiskey Lullaby written by Randall, Desert Rose Band tunes (Jorgenson and Pedersen were founders and bandmates), Scruggs classics, and more. There was warmth, and storytelling, and lots of laughter as this fresh band of legends invited Roland White, an old bandmate of Pedersen's from The New Kentucky Colonels days, onstage to play. Jorgenson asked White what instrument he should play, to which White replied, 'Is there anything you don't play?' White told Jorgenson to pick up the mandolin."
The John Jorgenson Bluegrass Band includes some of the best in bluegrass: Herb Pedersen on banjo, Jon Randall on guitar, and Mark Fain on bass.
Sound: Art Isaacs, Dave Eisner, Dave Richardson

Herb is singing lead on this. One of the best bluegrass tenors of all time. However, Herb's lyrics are a bit screwed up here. Original Lyrics are : "YOU'RE making plans to forget me, I'm making plans to miss you, I'm getting ready to GRIEVE" (not leave). Otherwise the lyrics make no sense. Nice job by all otherwise.
