I went to the Hickory Nut Gap farm 20 minutes out of town if you want to stick with the fun name theme, I think it wasn’t much to write home about but a nice stop on a drive to see mountain scenery

Sean McPherson is a great local music person, and he left his gig at Jazz88 to lead or co-lead

They have made this convention last eleven hours with exactly one vote taken. Might be high attrition even as I acknowledge it’s always like this.
