Two Chairs No Waiting
This is a short interview I did with Doug Dillard back in 1998. Doug is an amazing banjo picker and to see the speed that his fingers move around those strings is amazing. Doug has been at EVERY Mayberry Days event since it began and this year will be the 20th Annual Mayberry Days. In recent years his brother, Rodney, has been joining him for two shows at Mayberry Days.
I’ll be talking a little bit about Mayberry Days after the interview. Hopefully I can help all you fans better understand why fans of The Andy Griffith Show travel each year to Andy Griffith’s home town of Mt. Airy, NC to celebrate the fun and laughs of Mayberry Days. Ever year there are different events, jokes, skits, and new folk in town so Mayberry Days is always different but with spirit of Mayberry spread throughout.
The Dillards will be inducted into the International Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame on the stage of the Ryman Auditorium on October 1, 2009.
The interview was recorded on 26 June 1998 in Kingsport, TN.
Remember to tell folks about our show and don’t please don’t forget to leave comments or ask questions on the Mayberry.com/podcasts website or by using the contact information given in the podcast. We’d love to have you be a part of our next feedback episode.

If you didn’t…well….you may not like this episode because it’s part 2 of that interview. Bob is a great fellow and while his haircut is city style, his heart is shaped like a bowl.
If you missed Part 1 of the interview, head on over and give it a listen. We’ll be here waiting for you when you get back for part 2.
