Warren Hellman Plays a Mean Banjo

Who says VCs have no soul? This weekend, San Francisco will play host to a huge bluegrass music festival in Golden Gate Park. The event was created and is funded by venture capitalist Warren Hellman, of Hellman & Friedman, which operates a $3.5B venture fund. The festival includes such performers as Emmylou Harris, Gillian Welch, Earl Scruggs, and Doc Watson.
