Some of my VERY favorite bands are back out on the road for shows ( with special restrictions ). In fact, overall I have been ardently gathering info for MANY venues all over America, and juxtaposing them all onto my website.<\/p>\n

VanHoy farms And Campground<\/a> are doing things RIGHT! They, along with MANY OTHER fine outdoor venues have been taking precautions to bring back LIVE…THAT IS RIGHT LIVE music to us! While I cannot personally make this show, I WILL certainly promote this show as much as I can.<\/p>\n

One factor that excites me for this band to tour again, is the fact I can listen for some new songs…see, they are indeed due for a new album. I would like to go to hear some new ones, or as much information as I can deduct from between song banter.<\/p>\n

Tickets range from $200-$320 for a group of four, and pods will be spaced six feet apart on each side. Additional measures will include requiring masks to be worn anywhere outside of the pods, mobile beverage sales, and a food pre-order system to limit contact.<\/p>\n

With the COVID-19 pandemic nearing one year, Mtn Roots Management CEO Bob Robertson<\/strong> hopes to pioneer an opportunity for live music lovers to get their fix without compromising safety. A seasoned industry veteran with over 30 years of experience, Robertson was inspired by the \u201cshow must go on\u201d spirit of his colleagues who were producing drive-in concerts and other adapted events nationwide, and felt called to bring that experience to his own backyard. His vision is to extend the program through the Summer under the bill \u201cVanHoy Farms Revival Music Series<\/strong>,\u201d with a promising lineup of artists to be announced soon.<\/p>\n
