Subject: Update on Ralph's Festival

Hello,
There have been some new developments in the lineup at Ralph Stanley's 34th
Annual Memorial Bluegrass Festival on May 27-28-29. First of all, Patty
Loveless has confirmed that she will be there on Friday the 28th to do an
acoustic set with her band and also to join Ralph onstage for "Pretty Polly"
and other songs.

Unfortunately, Ralph himself will have to miss Thursday night at the
festival as he will be in New York City with the "Great High Mountain Tour".
He will arrive at the festival on Friday and remain for the rest of the
weekend.
Ralph Stanley II & The Clinch Mountain Boys will hold forth in his absence
for Thursday's show.

Here is the lineup for the weekend:

Thursday May 27
Ralph Stanley II & The Clinch Mtn. Boys
The Lewis Family
Jimmy Martin & The Sunny Mtn. Boys
The Singing Conquerors
The Cherryholmes Family
Will Mullins & The Virginia Playboys

Friday May 28
