I believe the tune is called 'End Of The World', and there is a vid of Bashful Brother Oswald himself playing it right here on YouTube. Thanks again for posting.
Rob is most probably teaching a workshop here. I'm one of his students, so I can see how he is stripping this Brother Oswald tune down to its simpliest form so the people in the workshop can benefit. Of course Rob can retune to a dozen different tunings if he'd like, add all kinds of killer rifs and play at the speed of light when he wants to or feels it will enhance the song. He is a great musician and gentleman.
Everyone has the right to be picky, but don't go bad-mouthing such a smart musician. Everyone you named are certainly masters of the instrument, and I'm sure(though I try not to speak for other people) Ickes would agree. Rob is not only a fantastic bluegrass, including the requisite lesson in country and hawaiian music, but he play jazz and funk on the dobro. Not everyone in the bluegrass community is as globally minded as Rob Ickes. Listen to 'What It Is', my favorite of many great solo albums.
the guy at the end says it all. Wow. This is music with simple purity. People who wouldnt enjoy something like this( like the two teens that leave in the middle, slaming the door)have something wrong in the head.
Somebody please tell me why it is so hard to find a vid of a dobro player playing in open d or open e tuning? Open g just doesn't sound good to me and I don't enjoy playing in that tuning. any suggestions?
Jerry Douglas plays in an open D tuning on some of the union station stuff from the DVD. D tuning was my first tuning and I used it as a sort of Swiss army knife because you can use the open position in the key of G as the 5 chord. Look up Kelly Joe Phelps too

Thanks for the comment and clarification. Rob indeed is teaching at a workshop at the Fire On the Strings Festival in Conroe Texas.
