Used to go to bluegrass festivals all over Virginia and North Carolina. Bill Monroe would be up on stage playing and our group would be up in the camp ground playing music ourselves. We didn’t stop to go see him play on stage. Happened like that numerous times. We just took it for granted. Wished I’d gone down to watch him more now that he’s gone. Too late now. I have got my picture taken with him one time though. Still have that picture.

Monroe did play on TV during the mid-50s, appearing on "The Country Show", which was an offshoot of the the Grand Old Opry. He didn't appear on many shows as far as I know, but the shows are rebroadcast on RFD=TV on Saturdays.

The Monroe brothers actually went to work for Sinclair Oil in the refinery at Whiting Indiana a suburb of Chicago. To my knowledge they never worked for Standard Oil.

Yes that's right, Sinclair Oil was the company where Bill cleaned the oil cans.

Many interesting facts are left behind, such as the everlasting conflicts with his bandmates. And why he mistrusted so many people who supported him. Based on his unhappy childhood - he never trusted anyone.
