If it's still going on when I retire, it'd be a festival to consider. I'm halfway considering Aiken Bluegrass Festival this year. I've got relatives who live not far from there & friends in the Clemson area-- but that's not an especially great time to go either.

I’d love to attend one of these festivals, especially LJT and Braun Brothers Reunion

While it's on the opposite side of the CSRA from your family, you should check out the Blind Willie McTell Blues Festival in Tompson, GA. http://blindwillie.com/

I'm not sure if Tompson is even considered a part of the CSRA. I had plans to go last year, for I really wanted to see Samantha Fish, but I changed jobs & didn't plan accordingly.

Samantha Fish is great. I saw her at the Bogalusa Blues Festival in 2017. That was a great lineup. I also saw NMAS & Anders Osborne.

Any rumors as far as BanjoBQue performers?

Drive a little further and you could do Merelfest. Hoping to go back this year. I daytripped it several years ago on Sunday. Pretty cool. Hoping to camp this year.

heres the lineup

Merlefest has long been on my list. They have consistently great lineups. Late April/Early May has long been a bad time for me to get away though.
