Con Games' Nitty Gritty

April 19th, 2008 at 10:52pm Post Staff 43

We post staffers were looking for something the mighty Jimbo might say to Michael to close out the fourth year of Con Games, something like "It's great to be a part of something so good that's lasted so long," but we found something even better:

    Damn. That was very hard to watch. I have to agree with some of the comments there that this was a sad summary of what was a good thing many years ago.

    This video is from a show Ibby did two years ago at the Brickyard in Rifle. It was billed as Dinner with the Ibbiots. It is only my opinion but I believe the half that left midway through were Rifle folks who had never seen Ibby play before but were curious thinking they were going to get a mini version of a Nitty Gritty Dirt Band concert. In reality it was more like paying to attend a private party where most of the guests were diehard fans and the Woody Creek Tavern folks. The rowdy one you hear in the beginning is Rick Rock, a Tavern bartender and valley musician in his own right. To appreciate this short clip on You Tube you should be in the same condition as the rest of the privileged few who are in the "in crowd." Yes, Ibby was much better than this video shows.
