What a Great Turnout for a Holiday Weekend!!

We sure had a lot of good music, food and fun at this month's Heartland Unplugged. I'm going to try and mix some pictures in this month (I found out that you can click on the pictures to enlarge them). The first one is of Nancy and John playing together. They are really serious about learning this type of music. This husband and wife duo have been coming to HU for the last couple of months. We're glad they chose our jam to play at. That's Tom on guitar behind them.

Donna, Craig, Tony and Cat served up some terrific cheeseburgers and brats, w/chips and soda. For a $2 donation, you just can't beat it. We sure appreciate all they do. That goes for everyone that volunteers and helps to put this on each month. That's Jim placing an order with Donna.

I mentioned that we had a terrific turnout. Lots of musicians. Some came just to sing along, too. Besides the main room, where the mic was at, there were a couple of "jammin' rooms". You sure couldn't complain about the lack of music.

I took a picture of the main jammin' area.

Now I guess I'll finish up with a picture of some of Paul and Bonnies' friends. We appreciate these families turning out. They provided us with some good harmony on some "CCR" songs. That's also Kathleen playing guitar on the right side of the picture. Her fiance, David, really needs to lighten up and try to sing some silly songs. :)

Great Time and Great Friends

We had another fun Heartland Unplugged in October (Fourth Friday of course). There were a lot of the usual faces there, but it was also exciting to see so many new ones. There's no way that I'll be able to remember everyone, but I'll try to list some of the musicians. There was Doc, Carl, Jim, Carolyn, Wayne, Pappy, Melvin, Steve, Paul, Bonnie, Dale, Dale, Joe, and the list goes on. There were a couple of new couples who were just great: David and Kathleen, John and Nancy. Thanks to the folks who helped with setup and food. It's so nice to have volunteers that want to see this thing go. The music started at 6:00 and lasted 'til past 10:00. Sorry if you missed this one, but the next one in November should be a very special one. It will be held on the Friday following Thanksgiving, so it should prove to be the perfect place for you to come and work off all of that food... or maybe just sit, listen and relax. We'll have to designate someone to be the honorary turkey. Maybe we could put it to a vote. Anyone have a turkey costume left over from Halloween?
