Hardly Strictly Bluegrass 2014 A number of people have approached us recently regarding the fact that this year’s Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival falls on the same weekend as Yom Kippur. When we first realized the conflict, last year, we considered other dates for the event. None were available. The organizing committee met to discuss our options. We were able to move the Hellman family set to Sunday and have activated a fourth stage on Friday so there is more music to see before the sun sets that night. What would Warren have done? Fortunately, it appears to us that the two events do not overlap again until 2030, when the first evening of Yom Kippur occurs once again on Sunday.
