We were at the hall to see an instrument demonstration complementing the Bakersfield sound exhibit. A couple of typical Nashville types were on hand to play and sing. Both of these guys (I didn't get their names) had played in bands with many of the greats and they had lots of stories to tell about how guitar styles evolved over the years. We were in the rotunda of the Hall with all the plaques of the inductees around us. The setting was very intimate (we were barely an arm's length away from the musicians). Here are a couple of clips of their playing:
"...I decided to visit California for a year or two to see its wonderful flora and the famous Yosemite Valley. All the world was before me and every day was a holiday, so it did not seem important to which one of the world's wildernesses I first should wander." --John Muir (1868)
