BRC band- busy bee$

April 7, 2013

The BRC founder`s band performed again at the yearly Roast-a-Doc gala, an evening to benefit the Children`s Hospital, when staff and friends gently poke fun at the physicians. We were stung when one of our fiddlers was 40 minutes late for the one hour gig because of unexpected delays installing a beehive in her backyard. Quipped one of our musicians to the frazzled and tardy violinst, “Two bee or not too bee, that is the question.”

 

At the reception, one of the band`s young and devoted fans and father stopped-by to listen to an old timey clawhammer passage on the banjo.

 

Afterwards, the musicians shared an (almost) annual dinner together at a local restaurant where it was announced that the band has donated $12K in gig tips to the Children`s Miracle Network over the last nine years.  With worldwide bee counts down and the flower pollination season at hand, the pickers also celebrated the two new bee colonies.
