“We’ll
be traveling the world this year, visiting countries we’ve never
appeared in. The most recent call brought news that our show in Prague,
Czechoslovakia has sold out 6 months in advance. They are adding a 2nd
show during our visit. Prague is said to be the ‘Bluegrass Capitol’ of
Europe. Thank goodness we’re flying in a day early to add more shows,“ Vincent states.
