CONCERTS 8 REGISTER ONLINE: classweb.townofcary.org PART ONE Blu-Bop: A Tribute to the Music of Bela Fleck & The Flecktones Sponsored in part by PineCone Saturday, July 11 | 6 p.m. | Free "Blu-Bop: A Tribute to the Music of Bela Fleck & the Flecktones" is, as far as we know, the world's first and only tribute to the groundbreaking band. The band is comprised of E. Scott Warren on bass; Mike Rosado on drums; Justin Powell on keys; Paul Messinger on harmonica; Myron Koch on saxophones; and long- obsessed Flecktone fan Hank Smith on banjos. Blu-Bop performs the very difficult but amazingly fun task of playing this music as accurately as possible and also uses the tunes as jumping-off points to showcase their own skills in true Flecktone fashion.
