Benefit for Melvin Goins at the Wilkinson/Stumbo Convention Center at Jenny Wiley State Park in Prestonsburg, Kentucky on November 12, 2010.
The gates will open at 4:30 pm. Admission $20.00. Advance tickets are not going to be available for this show, first come first serve so make plans to get there early in case seats are sold out!
All proceeds will go to Melvin to help out with his medical bills. Melvin has been involved in bluegrass music for almost 60 years and is well known to most anyone who digs bluegrass music!
This really is an amazing deal for twenty bucks to see and hear all this plus you will be helping out in a good cause.
Check out this awesome list of bands that are scheduled to perform! Several of these bands would be well worth a twenty dollar bill if they were the only ones performing!
J.D. Crowe & The New South
Dr. Ralph Stanley & The Clinch Mountain Boys
Larry Sparks & The Lonesome Ramblers
Don Rigsby & Midnight Call
Ralph Stanley II
Coaltown Dixie
Bryan Goins & River Road
Doyle Lawson& Quicksilver
Jesse McReynolds

This is going to be an awesome show man! I LOVE J D Crowe and Larry Sparks and it would be well worth a twenty to see either one of them let alone all these other bands. Its really an excellent deal I think and I plan on being there. Mark that calendar November 12!
Hey does anyone know what happened to Melvin? This is described as a benefit to help with his medical bills but nothing is mentioned about what happened to him. Is he OK?
From what I have read he had a heart attack
On November 20 Melvin Goins will be at Clay City
