Special Consensus 25th Anniversary Concert


By David Royko

BLUEGRASS REVIEW: The Old Town School of Folk Music hosted a unique

bluegrass festival Saturday night--nine bands, each named Special

Consensus. To commemorate the group's 25th anniversary and 10th

recording, leader Greg Cahill staged a remarkable celebratory concert,

stretching--with only one short break--from 7:30 until midnight. With

23 out of the 36 musicians that have passed through Special C's ranks,

Cahill reassembled, or at least approximated, nine of the band's line-

ups for the standing-room only crowd. That the end result was even more

impressive for the music than the nostalgia it generated speaks to

Cahill's abilities as both a musician and talent scout.
