Vol #2: Old Time music and dance scene in southwestern Virginia, 1980-1990

Images of Fiddler's conventions in Virgina, including the Blacksburg Hoorah Clogger, 1980 to about 1990. Also includes two weddings and barn dances (Bob and Annie; Mary and Dan). Music background by the Tri County Ramblers (Giles, Montgomery and Floyd counties). I'll get the name of tunes soon as hear my own video. First one is Sugar Hill. This is second of two volumes. Enjoy, Uncle Mudd

Oh, what a fantastic sound this is !! All 3 pieces featured here are pure gems. Great post !! And the lovingly-assembled montage of photos are equally awesome .. I particularly love the clog-dancing scenes. Outstanding post, in every respect ...

Gosh, what a fortunate coincidence. It was just a random photo that I took at the time and included it here. So sorry for your loss. She looks like she is indeed enjoying herself.
