Performances
Our house band Mojo Tones kicked 15 minutes of pre-show music to set the mood and then the lights dropped for the beginning of the event. As in our very first year, the incredible Miles Osland opened the show with a blistering version of the National Anthem!
Bob Brynt's Hair Band was next up playing a composition siply not of this earth, followed by a return of Phoebe White performing "Yodeling Cowgirl"! We were then treated to a beautiful guitar/vocal performance by the amazing Serena Hutchens, followed immediately by Tripp Bratton's M'Power Rythm All-Stars! And the Mojo Tones had everyone dancing on the way out at night's end!
