===================================================================

For the 6th consecutive year we've invited two of our favorite 
musicians, Adam Aijala & Ben Kaufmann, from one of our favorite 
bands, Yonder Mountain String Band, to help us celebrate the 
official last day of summer – this Saturday, September 22. 

These Mabon Celebrations have become legendary – even Sunset 
Magazine highlighted this year's Celebration! – as Adam and Ben 
dig deep into their vast chests of songs (from Yonder rarities 
to cover surprises) and instruments (banjos, mandolins, keyboards, 
guitars) for 2 expansive sets of acoustic music. Stream two tracks 
from Ben's personal archive – including a set of Irish tunes 
learned from Lunasa at: http://snd.sc/PoJ8NN

Plan to spend the whole summery Saturday afternoon on Planet Bluegrass 
for a day that ListenUpDenver calls "one of the most beautiful 
events I have ever taken part in." The Ranch gates open at 2pm 
to setup your camp; partake in Mabon revelry; and share in Mabon 
feasting including: gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches, fresh-cut 
french fries, garlic knots, and homemade soups. All day we'll 
be serving wines and New Belgium beers. Then at 7pm we open 
the Wildflower doors, with Ben & Adam taking the stage at 8pm.

Tickets and camping are available right now at http://shop.bluegrass.com 
or 800-624-2422 (with no service fees, of course). We expect to 
have tickets available Saturday at the gate, but check 
http://www.bluegrass.com for the latest availability.

While the Mabon Celebration is our last September show, plan 
to join us again in mid-October for 4 more Wildflower evenings, 
including songwriting legend Jesse Winchester (covered by 
Lyle Lovett at this year's Folks Fest). It's certain to be 
a magical autumn of music on Planet Bluegrass. We can't 
wait to share it with you.

Best,
The folks on Planet Bluegrass
