Vince Gill and Alison Krauss are my two favorite vocalists, and two of the nicest people to boot. I saw Vince a couple of years back in Visalia, CA when he was on an acoustic tour with three of his buddies. There was a guy on piano, a guy on ... um, I think bass, and a guy playing a wooden box that he sat on, as a drum. And of course, Vince. He joked about how that tour was so he could afford to pay for the other tours where he carries along a 25 piece band of high dollar musicians. :)
I've seen AKUS a couple of times in Hanford, CA. I'd list Vince and Alison as the two musicians I'd most like to spend the evening with sitting on the front porch.
Unfortunately he had a cold that night and only sang about half of the usual songs.
