The St. Patrick’s Day Opry

DSC_0038

Going to have to work and catch up with the activities of the last week, it’s been crazy! We had an opry on St. Patrick’s Day, featuring the Expedition Show and the Hand Hewn String Band. We weren’t sure if the holiday would affect the show, and it might have, but then being a Wednesday and church night probably didn’t help either, now in hind sight. Our crowd is very much an older crowd and many are very avid church folk on Wednesday nights. And to top it off, it was like the very first SUPER nice day outside and I fear that many people were out and about and working in their yards and gardens and just might have worn themselves out for evening’s entertainment. Of course, it might have been planet alignment issues or I wore the wrong perfume… you never can tell.

But, needless to say, it was an AWESOME evening of entertainment… starting off the Hand Hewn String Band, one of Toledo’s favorite bands and led by our own sound guys Jerry and Randy. Great music as always and it was a treat to have Jimmy belt out Ruby as the encore!

The Expedition Show is a great band outta Nashville, formally known as the Williams and Clark Expedition. Everyone there was super duper nice and we just had a wonderful show. We hope that we can have them back sometime and make sure we get a decent crowd for them!

And look! We actually got a picture of Jeff as the MC and he’s not blurry!!! It’s been almost 33 shows now and almost every picture we take of him… three different photographers… is blurry! He has a very super special power to blue cameras as he works, so this one was surprising to see. Everyone else is kind blurry though.. hahaha….
