About Doc Watson
I live here in wonderful Winston-Salem, NC, just a stone's throw from Wilkesboro and Boone where that culture thrives. I've seen Doc Watson only once, when I was maybe 14 years old. It was a captivating enough performance then to impress a dumb teenager. We have MANY brilliant bluegrass pickers around here. There are many incredible unknowns, guys in their 60's and 70's that have been playing for decades, that are just incredible. A local civic center does a Friday night jam that many come out to see or play with others. It rocks.
