-bump- It’s this weekend, and the weather looks like it’s going to be great. Outdoor jam Saturday night, BTW – if you’re in the neighborhood, stop by, and don’t forget your instrument! :slight_smile:

It’s going to be great!!
I’m in the mood for tunes too.

Matt Mancuso is coming from NY and has loads of Reavy tunes,
There’ll be plenty of great songs from the King Dan Cummins too!

Can’t wait!!
