Allegheny Drifters, "Can't Wait" CD Revirw

Congratulations to The Allegheny Drifters, for their "Can't Wait" CD review, in the February Bluegrass Unlimited. Check the print edition, the review is not on line. Very good review and well deserved.

Allegheny Drifters at Troyers's

The Allegheny Drifters concert at Troyer's Country Dining in Berlin Ohio, was a success by any measurement, the singing and picking were excellent as we have come to expect from the Drifters. Especially evident, in this small room, was Bernie's tasteful lead guitar work, I believe it is sometimes overlooked in a larger outdoor venue.

The promoters seemed pleased with the less that capacity attendance, and have announced that beginning in January bluegrass will be presented every Saturday at Troyer's.

If they are able to grow the audience this could become another great venue for Bluegrass. One important factor is the management seems to really like the music, It is not only a business opportunity, but something they want to do.

Amish Country, Holmes County Ohio

Darlene and I are in Holmes County Ohio, for The Allegheny Drifters Show tonight at Troyer's Country Dining. Concert details are in an earlier post.

You know you are in Amish country when Wal Mart provides a hitching post and shelter.

I will be posting pictures from tonight's show and more from this area later.

Allegheny Drifters at Troyer's Country Dining

The Allegheny Drifters will be presenting their show of great pickin' and outstanding Bluegrass harmonies, at Troyer's Country Dining, Berlin Ohio.

The buffet diner show will be Saturday October 18, at 5:15 PM.

Troyers picked up the area Bluegrass shows, after the long running series at Grandma's Homestead was discontinued.

Darlene and I can vouch for the fine food at Troyer's, we have been there several times. This is our first opportunity to hear Bluegrass there. In what will most likely our last camping trip of the year, we are returning to the Amish area of Ohio for the first time in two years, a very relaxing place to spend time and enjoy the serene surroundings. We will be staying at the Scenic Hills RV Park, a great place for self contained units.
