One of the great Brattleboro events
I like this one. It’s truly local, celebrates local talent, and isn’t aimed at tourists (even though they are welcome!)
Reading new band names is always a pleasure. Plus, you get to read sentences like this: “Gates open at 2:30 PM” Gates…. heh. I love it.
Rock on!
