Oh, what a mighty time!! The 5th annual "Holiday Hootenany" was the best one ever! Special thanks to this evening's performers, Chuck & Mud and The Hole in The Dam Band, Valerie & Walter Crockett and The Oxymorons, The Blackstone Valley Bluegrass Band, and Paul Della Vallee and The Ink-Stained Wretches.
