Uadoa TM Bv FRANK BALLARD of The Daily Tar Heel SicfJ Dozens oTHSunday afternoon strollers recently clustered around a small group of poker faced students in McCoride Place to listen intently to their nimble banjo and guitar picking fcid ncfcal singing. Undoubtedly this was the first time many in the audience had been exposed to the students' special brand of music bluegrass. Hie impromtu outdoor con cert resulted after members of a UNC bluegrass group, the East Cobb County Cockfighters, announced a public "pick n sing" outside Graham Memorial. Several string-instrument buffs showed up with guitars, a banjo and mandolins. Joining the Cockfighters on songs they were familiar with, the students delivered a free bluegrass show that brought grins of enjoyment and tapping " toes from onlookers. Hie Cockfighters held the "pick 'n sing" to attract other people in this area who play bluegrass music. They may announce more "pick 'n sings" in the future and according to member Tom Glenn "we're sure to be playing in public, October 25-27 production because of the vocal demands of the principal roles. Singers and actors trying out are requested to bring their own music to the audition, preferably music that will display their best vocal range and quality.

" Very- possibly UNC's first and only student bluegrass group, the Cockfighters" organized at the end of last semester. Some of their members played previously .with the Six and Seven-Eighths String Band, a North Carolina Mate group which year's N.C. State won last Talent inow. When the State bluegrass group disbanded, the Carolina members organized the -Cockfighters. The Cockfighters consist of Glenn, who plays guitar; Al McCanless, fiddle; Ben Helms, bass, and Steve Floyd, banjo. Polishing their performance .with practice sessions several times weekly, the group has been enthusiastically received at fraternity and dorm parties ana at the Toronto Exchange party. . "Bluegrass fascinates peoplethey've never seen it before," Glenn remarked. The Cockfighters also delight audiences at E. G. Merritt's service station on Pittsboro Road, where they play oc casionally for students, pro fessors and anyone who hap pens to be sitting around watching the numbers spin off on cne gas pump meters.

It's not too big inside, but Glenn said as many 32 people have crowded around the Cockfighters, risking getting burned on the old stove that heats the place. Drawn by the quick pkkin' bluegrass music, and cold beers that can be enjoyed for twenty cents, the listeners at Merritt's appreciate the Cockfighters show im mensely. "That shore does beat LSD," one old rustic told Glenn in praise of the music. They even participat in the lively performance. According to Glenn, every time the group plays at Merritt's a different inebriate gets carried away with the peppy music and does an old-fashioned "buck dance" on the old board floor. Despite its decidedly rural flavor the banjos and fid dles, whiney singing and song titles like "Salt Creek," "Wheel Hoss" and "Cabin on the Hill" bluegrass is definitely not country-western music. Nor is it folk music. "It's probably one of the newest kinds of music around," explained Glenn. "Banjoes, guitars, mandolins and fiddles have been played for years, but before bluegrass, nobody played them like this."

THE SUCCESSFUL it all in 143 when he invented the uncannily fast three-finger banjo style that has made him the world's best banjo picker. His partner in the in ternationally popular bluegrass group of "Flatt and Scruggs and the Foggy Mountain Boys" began speeding up his guitar picking to accomodate Scruggs lightning-quick pace. Lester Flatt also adopted the difficult flat-pick guitar style which characterizes bluegrass. The bluegrass group in which Scruggs originally developed the revolutionary picking style, "Bill Monroe and the Bluegrass Boys," were the first popular bluegrass group. The Cockfighters have based their repertoire on the music of both these professional groups. Glenn and other bluegrass fans are aghast when their music is compared to the high ly comm ercializ ed country Western, which has been said to sell more records than any other kind of music. Because bluegrass calls for "a high amount of notes to the beat'1 and employs the difficult three finger and flat-pick styles, it is tough to master, - Glenn pointed out. Even the atmosphere of the two styles differs greatly, Country & Western artists often use electronically, amplified in- now taking the basement of be taken after May .m ' a.-.

Scoffing the "sequined cowboy suits and gold boots with eagles on them" sported by flashy country-Western groups, Glenn said that bluegrass artists try to drtss in the "traditional Kentucky planter style." String ties, an occasional Stetson, plain vests and unadorned boots are the garb for bluegrass groups. Since country-Western song titles and content tend to be somewhat inane ("Don't Come Home A'DrinSdn With Lovin' on Your Mind," "I Got the Hongries for Your Lovin" and "I'm Standing in the Welfare line of Your Heart") the Cockfighters have learned two take-offs on country-Western efforts. "They're called 'A Lot More of Jesus and a Lot Less Rock n Roll' and 'Father of a Honky-Tonk Girl'," announced Glenn with a slow smile. Although Glenn thinks bluegrass hit its peak populari ty in the early ISSO's, the future looks bright. The East Cobb County Cockfighters are on the rise, too. This summer they will play at Six Glags over Gerogia, a usneyiand-iike amusement nark near Atlanta. More dorm and fraternity jobs have been also scheduled here. :; J so many positions been offer the CPA an exciting there he'll have the pros pect ot Decoming a partner, ur in time he can start his own practice.
