Hi,

Just a report on the happenings at the Mocha Cafe last night. We had a good turnout with upwards of 25 to 30 people showing up. For this area that is good in the summer with good weather. Once we get to the cooler months the turnout should increase. Everyone is happy with it.

One of the participants was our own Downeast Bob who showed up with his banjoline. He brought with him his friend Tom who also had a banjoline. they played one instrumental piece (I didn't get the name) and then sang "They're Digging Up Father's Grave". Both pieces were well received by the crowd. Bob and Tom gave us a good performance plus the history and evolution of the banjoline. Very nice sounding instruments well played.

Thanks for coming out Bob. Please come again.
