Scott Thile, I just got back from a Nickel Creek concert in Sioux Falls. It was stunning! The group has really matured since the last time I saw them at the Sioux River Folk Festival. Your son's musicianship is world class. But I think you know that. The show was a very complete event with wonderful transitions. A crowd that had just been in a frenzy from the hard driving acoustic oldtimey bluegrass/rock/jazz was in complete silence and awe during the Bach Partita for violin played on the mandolin by your son. Lawrence Becker, they are in Cincinnati on the 7th of June. You have to see them. Thank you Scott for giving your support to those three kids (now young adults) to help them become the musicians they are today. Tim Coates
