Arthritis and Diabetes are the two main reasons he gave for his decision, plus, he's the owner of "The Bluegrass Palace", in Watts, KY [close to Jackson, Hazard], a small but lively venue where his band, Riverbend, are the host band. You can't miss it, it's in the Watts Fire House, right along KY 15.
His shows are monthly, with plans for a special New Year's Eve celebration, complete with New Years Day Breakfast, cooked by Dave himself!
This is sad news to hear. I remember seeing Dave perform at the Berkshire Mountains Bluegrass Festival in the 1970's, and as for north as Brunswick, ME....at the Thomas Point Bluegrass Festival....as well as points in between.
Great memories will last forever.......
