(2,220 posts)but he has definitely gone over the Qliff. I stopped going to his shows or wandering off elsewhere during his sets at bluegrass festivals in the late 90s.

(2,667 posts)That people could be that deep in the cult of personality of a dumbass con man like Trump.
The real cults are jealous as hell of this.

(5,941 posts)Ricky was a regular guest. He was a pretty decent guy as far as stars went and I always have liked his playing. I saw him with Bill Monroe many times and every time it was a treat. It makes me sad to see him so far over the edge that I won't be listening to his music anymore.

(9,662 posts)He's a fine musician though his music isn't my cup of tea. Even that respect has now been tarnished.
Perhaps he had a chance meeting at some lonely crossroads long ago and his part of the bargain has now come due.

Got to wonder if he tries to talk up this crazy shit when hes around normal types or if he manages to keep his mouth shut.
