Bluegrass Fests in Texas this Winter?

[Tom Mullen]

Hey Gang, I am getting too old to drive 2 days to the AZ fests and looking for BG fests this winter in TX, OK, KS MO, AR.
I am in T town so would like to limit my drive to 5-6 hours.
Thanks

The earliest Bluegrass Festival I know of in texas is the Argyle Bluegrass Festival. It's just North of Dallas so that should be pretty convenient. I have never been to it so I can't offer any opinion though a couple of people I know said it was good.

If you just got there I guess you missed the one in Guthrie that Byron Berline puts on...

Argyle does sound like the top North Texas festival from what I hear from my Fiddle playing sister in Dallas.
