Bluff View History

Bluff View history is one where I step back and say wow, then I say... boy that wasn’t enough fun. Should have booked more! Really wondering if I missed a 2011 concert. None were duds, all were special. Feel free to post a comment on how many you’ve made. Guess on how many accordion or fiddle players we’ve hosted. Anyone know who picked up my bouzouki and played it smoothly? Which concert started outside for the first set and inside for the second? What night was so hot the air conditioning just couldn’t keep up? Which was your first? This blog was helpful in the past, but I do find myself leaning on the Facebook page for current posts.
