  Here are some images I took and video/soundboard feed that David Holt took at the celebration of life that was done for Doc Watson at the NC Museum of Art in Raleigh. Onstage they had Doc’s brother, David Watson, David Holt, Joe Wilson, T. Michael Coleman, Bryan Sutton, Wayne Henderson, Jeff Little, Barry Poss and MC’d by George Holt.

  Here are my images from the second row (best to use slideshow and full screen with the flag icon):

  David Holt filmed the whole thing from the back of the auditorium with a soundboard feed into the video camera:

  Must say I’m sort of surprised we don’t have a Merlefest in April and a Docfest in the middle of September right before the IBMA when everyone is in the area. Am glad they took my suggestion to keep the Hillside stage open later and have sunset jams to sort of thin the herd at that time as the other stages close down. Think I first suggested that about the time Dolly Parton played the Watson Stage.

  Last year’s amazing sunset jam with the Krugers and a bunch of fine guests:
