Sam Bush has posted a hilarious YouTube video shot during the now legendary Del-uge that came on DelFest over the Memorial Day weekend. He shot it on his bus where he and several others sought refuge when the storms hit.

It appears that the acrimony over announced appearances by top bluegrass/acoustic artists in Louisville this weekend (3/20) is likely to linger for a while. Charges and counter-charges are being flung online, with ill will and dashed expectations for a major bluegrass initiative floundering over contract disputes.
