The young couple who own SandRocks, a craft beer cafe with live music in Sandstone MN, are delightful hosts, and Nick and I always have a good time here. Our jug band friends in the area will likely join us. Fun! 6:00-8:00.

Another Second Sunday, when Nick and I play at the sweet, historic Waldmann Brewery, 6:00-7:30, on Smith Avenue in St Paul, at the foot of the High Bridge. Wil the Biergarten be open in May? We'll find out!

Nick and I are delighted to play the annual Art Fair at the MN Landscape Arboretum, a Minnesota treasure of a place. Lots of arts and crafts vendors in a beautiful setting. We play 4:00-7:00 on Friday, August 16.

This is truly unique: Robert and Jill bring their smoker truck to a spot on Plato Blvd for a pop-up BBQ party every Friday with live music, 5-7 pm. Go to their website by the night before to place your order, then pick it up on Friday. There are some chairs and tables if you wish to stay and have a picnic on site while enjoying live music, and this is REALLY REALLY GOOD barbecue!!
