Murray Kentucky Fiddle Contest 2008

The Murray Kentucky Fiddle Festival was a great time this year. The contestant turnout was decent, and the judging was excellent. And, I had a great time jamming with Tyler and Joel. 

The Judges were:

I ended up in third place in the Junior (17-49) category. Joel Whittinghill placed second, and Doug Fleener landed the win. Ed Carnes ended up in 4th after narrowly losing a 3rd place tiebreaker (1 point.) Much excitement was had by all. Wild Bill Jones made a brief appearance to perform accompanist services, but he missed out on the jamming fun.

Maddie Denton swept the Beginner (11-16) age group, and won the Grand Champion Fiddle off. Later at Los Portales Mexican Restaurant, Maddie was crowned the Western Kentucky Fiddle Queen.

   Looking forward to the Western Kentucky Regional next year at Murray. I’m sure it won’t dissappoint.
