We got to the Telluride Bluegrass Festival on the 16^th.  Matt won a slot, out of 600 contestants, to compete against nine other singer/songwriters from around the country in the Troubadour Competion held here annually.  Anyway, he won the thing yesterday, and so we’re gearing up to watch him singer-songwrite his way into the hearts of about a zillion stoned Festivarians tonight before the Decemberists take the stage!   Way to go Matt!

The Telluride Festival gets the Hudson/Harlan thumbs up.  Also, big thanks to Mateo Meany and his roomie Sarah for the Denver digs and the morning hang and big breakfast.
