Yeah, i've caught 3,6,7,8.

mainly b/c I don't have cable and didn't realize until too late I could watch these, I will catch them as soon as I can.

I'm sorta the opposite - I think - I knew who George, Reba, Garth and Roseanna were but just wasn't my thing, but have met and spoken with a few of the narrators, Ketch Secor and Rhiannon Giddens. Went to see Ricky Skaggs at the Birchmere a few years ago and if you waited around say, another 45 minutes after the show he would sit and talk with you at length, (everyone in line, one at a time) probably talked with him for five minutes I had read Ralph Stanley's biography, so he was recommending other books. Loved the segment on Garth Brooks just showing up incognito and signing autographs for "20 hours." That'll get you some undying fans.

Good stuff, if they missed someone, it might be John Hartford, but I'd have to go back and watch the earlier episodes to see if he got a mention.

I really want to go to a show right now, it doesn't have to be country.

PS Our t-shirts will supposedly show up in a couple days.
