We’ll be at the Cupcake Fest again this year, July 16th, 6-8 pm at Jaffrey Civic Center (center of town). Bringing JT back for a reunion gig. Come eat cupcakes with us and listen to the tunes!

I think I can say that I was the first on my block to own one!  In case you haven’t heard of the latest craze, check it out here: www.bluegrassjamball.com  and then get on the bandwagon.  You might never be stumped at a jam again.  Kelly’s been working hard to help change the world by eliminating jammer’s block, and it’s already proven useful for the Birch Benders.

We had a great time playing for you all at Stonewall Farm…what a great place!  Congrats again to Jared & Emily!

Thanks to everyone who came out to Fritz’ last Friday night to see the show!  What a great crowd…Keene, New Hampshire definitely supports bluegrass music!  We’re back there again April 17th.  Hope to see you then!

The birches are bending all over the place in New Hampshire.  Here’s what things look like in our neck of the woods.

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.  Time was spent with family, some of whom hadn’t been together in years.  Lots to be thankful for this year, including two feasts so far (and counting).  Fat and happy in New Hampshire!

Here’s where we come from, the Mount Monadnock region of New Hampshire.  A couple of us climbed up this beast a few days ago, up there where the chilly winds do blow.

The mighty Monadnock

We were featured in last night’s “Chronicle” on Boston Channel 5.  The episode entitled “Tank Away” is still available until 7:30 tonight on Comcast ON Demand, if anyone has it.  Otherwise, did anyone TiVO?
