To all the folks commenting. This was completely unexpected, I was there with Mike for a gig and I just pulled out my phone and captured. Sorry for the shaky video but I was in a crowd of people and that's why you are hearing all the talking. Many there had no idea what they witnessing. I am just glad I had a chance to capture the moment.

Not A Fiddler Around That Could Have Played More Homage To 'Uncle Pens' Fiddle Than Michael Cleveland".

"I cant tune it to standardxor the strings will break" Michael - tunes fiddle. Love watching this guy

Michael is a one of a kind and the best.

Simple song loaded with an abundance of soul by Michael!

Some people in that crowd are very disrespectful ! Great job playing that fiddle young man . I’m sure Bill is grinning !(absolutely did that song justice )

I think we found the best one

He's play bluemoon of kentucky Mike it's a Incredible fiddle player

Good Stuff! Thanks for sharing!

The way they are dressed makes it appear that the temperature is cold, but there sure is a lot of hot air being passed among them!

Thanks for sharing Murrell!

So rude! People talking..Reminds me of people who blow their nose in a restaurant..Don't even realize who is playing.. Great job Michael!

thanks for shairng

I was there that day. The winds registered at 85 mph.

Fantastic event. Bill Monroe would love it.

What's the point of Michael even playing if y'all are going to talk the whole time?

Jeez. This little gem . Wow. Gut ripping lazer.

that old fiddles talks!

If I were a cop, I would have written a ticket for everyone who was talking while Michael Cleveland played a country blues version of Amazing Grace on Uncle Pen's fiddle. Holy cow. He should have charged them before he played it so they'd shut up and listen to a living legend honor a passed legend.

Should have played Soldiers' Joy, then the Boston Boy, then Jenny Lynn......

Looks like the camera operator had a little of uncle pens moonshine

Big mouths!

No one cares to hear these guys blow hot air! Shut up and listen to Mike play!

If its not in standard what is it like a whole octive down ?

Why is it that some people have to talk over everybody and every thing! They just can't shut up. Sooo annoying! Could hardly hear that beautiful fiddle.

It is so deeply funny to me the woman is struggling with the tuning then realized "oh hey Michael Cleveland is right there" hahhah its like you are practicing a shot in basketball and after a while figure you might as well ask LeBron James, who has been standing next to you the whole time, if he has any ideas.

Mostly talking it to death and very little fiddle playing.

Michael can play much better than that believe me.

to much talking and hold the fickin camera still

She handed him a badly out of tune fiddle? Really?
