The Art Box - Episode 59 - 38th National Cowboy Poetry Roundup - Day One - Featuring The Buchanans

Reporting almost live from the 38th Annual Cowboy Poetry Roundup in Elko, Nevada. We are here by generous grants from Nevada Humanities, the National Endowment of Humanities and of course our own Virgin Valley Artists' Association. We are recording on the run, lots of background noise and we will do our best on the volumes.  Today we were entertained by a young group of musicians of the Buchanan family from Yerington, NV.  They were so very gracious to interview with us before their performance and afterwards. Such a talented young family. After that we moved to the main Auditorium at the Elko Convention Center to be entertained by DW Groethe, Yvonne Hollenback, Sourdough Slim, Robert Armstrong and R.B. Smith. There was no recording allowed in the main auditorium. We will be back on Thursday for some more Western fun!
