I played here a few years ago and was delighted to have the opportunity to do so again!
There is a live studio audience as you can see from these photos: (taken from my vantage point on stage just before the show began to air.)

I was up first,

The people who came to my workshops in Townsend heard the show and I was able to plug both www.dulcimercrossing.com and my workshop, show and jam in Chattanooga tomorrow!
And even more cool, the Visitors Center sports an umbrella collection (whether these are left behind, or offered for unprotected tourists…it is still surprising and thoughtful!)
Steve’s setlist:
Simple Gifts (hammered dulcimer solo)
Barlow Knife (mountain dulcimer with noter & quill, then noter & pick)
80,000 Cage-Free Chickens (mountain dulcimer & vocal)
