[SIZE=-1]For a band that understands the vibrancy, spontaneity and sheer joy of the live-music experience, Colorado’s Yonder Mountain String Band is the rare band that Gets It. That's why YMSB has just released their fifth live album, this one a two-disc set recorded at the Promowest Pavilion in Ohio and capturing tracks from 2004 to 2007. Wait? Did we just say PAVILION? That's right, the band inherited Leftover Salmon's hungry fanbase -- and also blends bluegrass and rock with traditional instrumentation (guitar, bass, mandolin and banjo). YMSB has rightly blossomed into an amphitheater-sized juggernaut in the past decade. So what's a band that runs with the likes of Grammy-winning Dobro player and producer Sally Van Meter, Grammy winner (and Handlebar performer) Tim O'Brien, Levon Helm and .moe doing playing the li'l ole Handlebar? It's how we roll. That's why you've gotta get your tickets fast. Unlike CDs, tickets do run out.
