2020 COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME INDUCTEE MARTY STUART REMEMBERS ROLAND WHITE (KENTUCKY COLONELS, BILL MONROE’S BLUEGRASS BOYS) TAKING TIME TO SHOW HIM SOME MANDOLIN LICKS AT BILL MONROE’S BEAN BLOSSOM BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL IN 1971. WHITE EVEN GAVE THE YOUNG MARTY A MANDOLIN PICK AND ONE OF HIS BLUEGRASS BOYS SCARF TIES TO KEEP AS A SOUVENIR. SO WHEN MARTY LOOKS OUT IN THE CROWD FROM HIS HEADLINING SPOT ON SATURDAY NIGHT AT ROMP, HE CAN’T HELP BUT SEE HIMSELF IN SOME OF THOSE YOUNG, WIDE-EYED FACES AT YELLOW CREEK PARK.
