I'm pretty sure Mike is the MC and initially on banjo.
Names I heard mentioned:
I heard where Bob came in late, but am not sure where he was playing banjo.
Bob was my bluegrass mentor when I was at Clemson University.

The last time I saw Bob was in 1971 when he visited me in Pleasant Valley, NY.
We did a recording session in my apartment.
