Bad Joke of the Week: What’s green and goes up and down?

A big thank you to everyone who came out to our St. Patrick’s Day show
and made it a huge success!! Rodney and The Pickers had some great
shows and Soltre had a good string as well. It’s back to some
Goldmine Pickers shows coming up as we get into the spring. This
weekend we will be down in Indianapolis for the Indy Folk Series which
promises to be a wonderful night of music in a great listening
environment. Come on out!
