But here I was, in the room with the
link hero of bluegrass music. It was Earl Scruggs and Tony Rice, in my mind. And I remembered thinking, 'What in the hell kind of watch does he have on?'When Jason Burleson saw Rice in the mid-'80s at The Down Home
link in Johnson City, Tennessee, he asked himself the same question. He later got his first Accutron from dobro player Phil Leadbetter –
link and when he ran into Rice backstage in the early 2000s, they connected over that watch and exchanged numbers.
