I love the Drops. They're not just fantastic musicians and entertainers, but what they're doing is musically and culturally significant. No one else is working as hard as they are to preserve and even expand the small and unique slice of the American musical heritage which they perform.

And they made it a community event by encouraging our participation in their set....a superb example of musical inclusiveness! They brought the house down at RG, and it was exhilarating to see it happen again at TBF!

 Thumbs Up I really liked their sound. Truely a  reflection of how it was done way in the day.

 I thougt the TBF stage morphed them a tad. 

 What a big stage to fill....(IMO)
