   About the KIND


The Kind, a Blacksburg based folk-rock band, is familiar to anyone who has passed through the New River Valley in the last twenty one years. Formed in 1986, The Kind plays in a variety of styles that ranges from classic rock, R&B, and jazz to bluegrass and country; however, the arena which they most frequently blend their diverse influences is their huge melting pot of Grateful Dead covers. Over the years, The Kind has been privileged to perform with the likes of Jorma Kaukonen (Jefferson Airplane & Hot Tuna), Rick Danko (The Band), Merle Saunders (The Jerry Garcia Band), Paul Kantner (Jefferson Airplane), Robin Sylvester (Ratdog), and The New Riders of the Purple Sage. The Kind combines strong lead vocals and harmonies together with intertwining melodies and soulful rhythmic grooves to produce a fun, flowing and danceable experience. They are equally at home in a laid-back acoustic setting or a high-energy electric experience.

okay, yeah, I think I'll probably just dish out the arm & leg in gas money and make the trip (my carbon footprint at 17 mpg sux, but....). I'll give Tim a call and follow up.
Woo Hoo! Should be fun!

I hadn't made plans, but it's a possibility. Maybe I can catch a ride with someone...? and make arrangements for a place to crash.

Hey! I am at Lewis Gale Physicians!! We are all booked for halloween. We have the cabin at the pine. We are soo excited. Hope all is well. Have a great beach trip. I hope the trip to the doc tomorrow with allie will be all she needs. we have been so fortunate, that she has never ever been to the doc for an illness before. not bad for 3.5 years. Thanks a million times over for inquiring about us.
