Steve Poltz Telluride 2019
My Denver rocky mountain and sometimes high correspondent BEM reports on loving the Telluride Bluegrass Festival, attending for the first time, with his kids.
I tipped him to Steve Poltz, who played in my short-lived and doomed series at an art gallery at corner of Hamilton and Alma, in 2005.
His kids loved Poltz.
Poltz remembered me.
I recall him saying that he loved baseball, especially post-season day games, that unique fall lighting.
Sure enough, the clip my buddy sends is Steve Poltz improvising something about Harry Carey misprounouncing “Dave Concepcion” the Big Red Machine shortstop.
Also, I forget that Steve Poltz and Jerry Hannan are buds. I think I red that Poltz and Tim Bluhm led a backpacking songwriter seminar.
It was news to me, thanks to the texts, that Steve Poltz and Jewel perform together. They cowrote and starred in the video “You Were Meant For Me”.
