Welcome to Big Blend Radio's Adventures in Asheville Show, featuring Steven Karen Wilson, owners and innkeepers of the Lion and the Rose, Bed and Breakfast. Hey everybody, welcome to the latest episode of Adventures in Asheville here on Big Blend Radio. We're going to get you ready and prepared for Halloween. Yes, it is September, but you better get your tickets now as all I'm saying and get your bookings in because Halloween in a mountain town, like think about the Montfort Historic District that's all decorated and spooky and, you know, all those historic homes, 600 homes and bed and breakfast with, you know, spider whips makes you want to go there, right? I think so. So of course we've got Steven, Karen Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. Wild back on the show. As you know, they own and run the line and the Rose, Bed and Breakfast right in the heart of the Montfort Historic District, and it is a beautiful, gorgeous pink lady. But you may see a Bates Motel sign on the outside as you drive by one of the bus tours out there. But welcome back guys. How are you? Good. How about you? Good. I'm thinking this is awesome that we're talking about Halloween early. I love it. I love it because it sounds like things book up pretty quick in Asheville for Halloween. Yeah, all time, definitely. Yeah, it's fall too, right? So the fall colors as part of that. Yes. Mm hmm. Okay. Steve, are you going to do a special brew at the end because, you know, for those who are new to the podcast or new about the line and the Rose, Steve is like the master brewer of the end. And when you check in, you get a glass of beer and what I normally know is that you do the dirty good diver beer at this time of year or do we have to wait till winter? It's coming up. Thank you for bringing you that. That's a good idea to do that. That's almost pretty popular. So go ahead and get that ready. Get it going. And who doesn't want a taste of dirty good diva? Come on. You know. Mm hmm. Trick or treat, right? Trick or treat. That's right. Well, we've got a special guest on this show, Ray Worth, and he's worthy. You know why? Because he's part of the heavy mountain music and beer fest that is coming out October 25th and 26th, so just in time for Halloween, it's happening at the Orange Pill and Bureau beers e-heulogy. What, what, what is going on with the Bureau, Bureau beers e-heulogy? I love this. Welcome, Ray. How are you? Oh, I'm good. Thanks a lot for having me. So wait a minute. How did this start? This is the second festival, right? That's the third, uh, the third year we've done it. Yeah, for sure. But this is the first time that it's aligned with, with the holiday being Halloween. I love this. This is fun. So, and doing it at the Orange Pill is pretty cool because that's an iconic venue, right for Asheville. Oh, absolutely. One of my favorite rooms in town. Mm hmm. Now, are you a musician, Ray? I am. I knew it. You had to be. Yeah, so I just had this feeling and now do you brew beer like I have to get into that now too. I don't, I feel the way about beer, the way I do cars. I don't care how they work. I just want to enjoy them. I like that. Well, you see, there it is, like, just enjoy, right? And listen, that's the beauty of staying at the end. You can go in there and, you know, you're welcomed in and you can get easy transportation to downtown from Uber and Lyft and things like that. Very easy. You can take trolley tours, all kinds of good stuff. You get welcomed with a beer, you're staying in a historic Victorian mansion. So you can sit there and, you know, spook yourself out and say it's haunted. I'll tell you it is, but that doesn't mean it's true. And then they have a Bates Motel sign on during the Halloween season. So you kind of start wondering, but then the next morning you wake up and if you're there on a Sunday, Steve will give you a beer mimosa, right, beer mosa? Is that the word? Beer mosa? Yeah, beer mosa. And actually they're good. It took us a few Sundays and then one day Nancy and I said, we must have one. Like what are we waiting for that we're like, we're so stupid to not have one. They're so good. Really, it's like a, it's like a, a mosa with beer and city champagne. And then they do the best breakfast for those of us who really enjoyed beer city USA. You know, Steve, you know what people want and you know, you know it. Stephen Karen go to music concerts all across the country and around Asheville and the southeast. They know what people want in need. And you will be well fed, you will be brewed up and happy. So, but this really ties into the heavy mountain music and beer fest. So this is it, it seems like going on the website and everyone go to heavymountainfest.com. Like you have a little bit of everything in music, but it is heavy. Like it's, it's, you know what I mean? Tell us a little bit about the music. Oh yeah, for sure. I'm definitely a, a heavy-hearted individual when it comes to my music genre and pretty much lies in there or like, psychedelic rock or like outlaw country. So, wanted to place a lot of emphasis on the holiday and so it was really targeting, you know, black metal bands or performance artists that lean more into the dark spaces. Yeah, not here to run a super family friendly music festival, what we wanted it kind of dark and evil. That's funny. Yeah, no, no, I mean, but come on, that's, this is when we get to escape reality, right? Oh, absolutely, like there's, I would trade Christmas to have two halloween. I think, well, listen, sitting on Santa's knee would be halloween. So I'm just, like a dark side of Christmas can get evil. Do you think the elf on the shelf is nice? He's not. He ate Santa's cookies, you know, he did. And then he put razor blades in like, you know, the eggnog and stuff. So I'm just saying the elf on the shelf be aware of him. I think it is like Christmas could be another halloween, but now I'm going to get in trouble with certain people, but I'm just, there's still costumes, costumes happening, you know, they're jolly and we get to wear pillows or some of us, like me may not need to have pillows in my costumey, but, but come on, I mean, so would you do halloween, like on Christmas, like if you could put a festival on, like over the Christmas season for Halloween, would you do it? I think it would be fun. It'd be fun, financially would probably be suicide, I would say. Yeah. Well, that's part of halloween too, but this thing, I'm glad you're on for a September show because it looks like tickets could book up pretty fast. Yeah, we've already sold out of our VIP passes, which includes entry to all three of the events. You get a couple beer tokens, the festival t-shirts, that's already sold out. The pre-parties, only 30 tickets away from selling out. Yeah, so things are moving pretty good and we're right at two months out. Okay, so what is available for folks now that you're on the show? What is available? Who can they see perform? Yeah, the main festival, there's still tickets available for that, so yeah, so you would head over to heavymountainfest.com and then I can click you through so we can get a ticket. So let's talk about the bands because the bands are, to me, pretty, they seem to come from all over. You've got people coming from New York City, you've got people coming from the Pacific Northwest. So yeah, you just go out and start calling them and saying, "Come on, let's do a party." But yeah, wolves in the throne room, you've got some crazy cool people, Emma Ruth Rundle. Tell us a little bit about the music lineup. Yeah, I'm also a talent buyer here in town as well, so I have relationships with these agencies and agents, but yeah, a lot of these are going to be exclusive North American plays, which involve fine in the artists and providing other backlines and whatnot, but wanted to do that to give exclusivity to the event. So like, for example, our headliner, wolves in the throne room, the only time you can catch them in North America this year is at heavymountainfest. Oh, wow, that's pretty exclusive. Probably one of the only East Coast dates for thou will be at heavymountainfest as well, and Emma Ruth Rundle is another one who doesn't come over terribly, terribly often, and so kind of a rare play for her as well, and she'll be showcasing some stuff from select earlier albums of her as she celebrates 10 years. And when you got to hold her? Hold her too. Yep, and then they're coming in from Pacific Northwest as well, yeah, so kind of wanted to place emphasis on a couple of things, one being a rare place from artists on the West Coast, Pacific Northwest. It doesn't get out to the East Coast quite as often, and then also with Emma Ruth and Holder showcasing that underrepresented individuals in heavy music, which is women, and I feel like there's tons of ladies who love heavy music, but it's about the only associated as being a male-driven demographic, which, you know, the numbers a lot, it is the majority, but you know, wanted to make sure to place emphasis on recognizing that, because I think that that is a beautiful thing to have. Yeah, and whereas in the run room, they seem to be part of that too, you know, in regards to women eco-feminism, oh, the other thing is castle rat, come on, that's got to be some cool stuff. I want to see castle rat. It's like some craziness that needs to be experienced. Oh, yeah, it's convenient that like fantasy, doom, and it's a whole, you know, theatrics that come aligned with it as well. I think it's a perfect fit for how always Saturday. I think what's great, oh, a generation of vipers, come on now, that's fun. Oh, yeah, they're doing, I got, yeah, I'm really proud that able to boast that we're doing three album releases at the festival, that show, yeah, we got generation of vipers, weight shift and harsh realm are all releasing albums at the festival. Very cool. So what about, you've got Pelican, the post-emo stone or death gaze since 2000? I don't know, I just, this is great, I think, I think what's great about, I go on the website at everyoneheavymountainfest.com because it's just so fun because I don't know, it's like, can we just lighten up y'all even though this is heavy and dark, like, you know what I mean? And this is so much fun that's going on the website and he's going to be there and who they are. It just seems so much fun and even the fantasy part and then they're at, the other guys are like, no, we're just this way, you know, everyone, some are dressed up. It's like a little bit of everything, so you have, you know, we are a big blend here, but it seems that you managed to put a little bit of everything into one festival. Right, yeah, and it's all under the umbrella of heavy music, but, you know, for example, like the pre-party, which is Pelican, and this will destroy you and Kondrama, all of that is instrumental bands. So it's kind of like the appetizer before the fest, a little more like post-rocky where, you know, the one on Saturdays, a little bit more extreme in regards to genre. Right. Now, let's talk about beer. Listen, I know I personally think beer is a daily thing, like wine. All of it can just, just daily, right? But October is a good beer season, you know, apparently the world says, no, we must have beer and I'm like, y'all are late. But breweries and beer are part of this. So you want to talk about some of the breweries that you've partnered with? Yeah, absolutely. So our kind of our Keystone sponsor is Barrio Bierco, who, you know, is also where you, which is on the campus of that brewery, and we're also going to work with Fonteflora and Zul, Burning Blush, resident culture, True, which is originally out of Denver, they just came to Asheville and that's a metal brewery as well, and Taranova and Findiary. So we're going to announce those tomorrow, so y'all got a 24-hour hit on that. Cool. Very cool. I would like to go to the end of it. Steve, like, give me your thoughts on the beer side of this. Are you excited about this? Yeah. It's all good. We've been to at least, I'd say, most, if not all of the brewers you mentioned, I don't recognize the Sindiary, but I know whenever we go to Knoxville, we make it a trip to Zul, for sure. Yeah. Yeah. I'm good friends with the guys who run the whale, which is like a local. Okay. Yeah. We're just out there today. Oh, yeah. Awesome. Sweet. Yeah, awesome, so they curate the list for heavy metal every year. Yeah. Cool. Nice. Now, Karen, we will berry-all. Oh, berry-all. Irish beers. Yeah, berry-all beer, you know, and then we will, of course, the atmosphere, the atmosphere of the dark and the disturbing and the, you know, it all fits. It's very cool. Yeah, it's on-brand, for sure. Yep. I love this. It makes sense. Yeah. And if Karen loves, but you know, you never know who's buried in the backyard of the B&B flowers, planted flowers, there's a lot of flowers. I'm just kidding, it's a Bates Motel sign that you put up. Come on. Yeah. I promise we won't bury our guests. We promise. No, no, no. Listen, the B&B is cool. Like I said, like you're going to go party and then come back to the inn, have a good night's sleep. Get up, have a beer mosa, feel like a million bucks with a good plate of food. It's going to hit every spot you need. You may not think you want that all in the morning when you wake up, but you will feel much better after Steve's breakfast in beer mosa, right, Karen? You know that. You see people come in like, oh, oh, and then go, okay, am I right? I can do this. I can, I can, I can actually, you know, do it. I can. Yeah. Because, you know, a lot of fun happens in Asheville and this is the season to do it. But Karen, what about you for the music? Who are you excited to see? Because I actually like the, yeah, I mean, there's so many different ones than we have not seen most of them, but Pelican just stood out to me and like, I like that heavy instrumental. It's just different. You don't get a lot of that. So that one is one that stands out to me. Oh, what about you, Steve? Yeah, I like the sound of Pelican too, but there was some of the smaller ones, a camera with the names of them around town. I was listening to my Spotify yesterday and a lot of that is really, really good stuff. I want to know about weight shift because they just look like don't mess with me, man. Well, I think you'll find with like most of, you know, like the individuals who've been in heavy music and metal since they were like 16, yeah, you know, they look a little tough and scary. Like not out of 10 or a bunch of like teddy bears. And I think that's what made me gravitate and, you know, kind of keep my passion within that genre is, yeah, you're covered in tattoos and you weigh 300 pounds and you go to the gym. Now we're going to talk about your favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe. And I'm like, now what about Andy the door bum? I want to know about Andy the door bum. This is where I gravitate because when I look at the picture of Andy the door bum, I'm like, don't come near my bum. Like honestly, you don't want to look at it everybody, go to heavymottenfest.com. Who doesn't want to see Andy the door bum? I want to see him. So, yeah, Andy is going to kick off, he's going to kick off the doorbell like it's sorry, trick or treat. I'm sorry. Go ahead. Andy is going to kick off the festival and that's again a little more like I don't want heavy music to always be boxed in as being metal. So, Andy is a good example of a singer-songwriter folk who dresses up and sings about darker themes but doesn't have loud distorted guitars or a big drummer. So, you can see a very engaging theatrical set by him. Cool. And is there also bands that, is this part of one of the parties though, that are covering other bands like Nirvana and very smashing pumpkins? Yeah. Yeah. What better way to end a festival than kind of like a powerhouse of local bands that are covering 90s nostalgia, so that was kind of the inspiration for that as I reached out to all my buds in town who played music and fairly notable bands and was like, "Hey, you can put together a 20-minute set and just let me know who you want to cover." And that's how that came to be and I think that that would be a great way to end a really, really strong weekend. Well, you got Celtic Frost and all hell like covering Celtic Frost and Nirvana, I mean, that's good. Tongues of fire. That's great. The secret shame is the cranberries. Ooh, that's a good name. That's a good name, yeah. And you know, the smashing pumpkins, I mean, you need that for fall, y'all. Just take that little breath and smash its head and, yeah, I mean, come on. So this is epic. So everyone, heavymountainfest.com is a website to go to. I just want to ask you, I know that it's, you know, you put it all together and you put these festivals on and these events are so, there's so much work that goes behind them and organizing and all of that and I appreciate that I know what goes into it and, but there's got to be moments that you want to just go and see something, right? So for you, what do you, I mean, you know, you're going to be torn everywhere that night and the two nights and the, you know, and then it's going to be that Monday, you're going to go like, when is Halloween really coming? You know, so what do you want to see? Well, kind of the beauty of the festival is you don't really have to pick. There's not like a dual stage setup or multi venue setup. So if you just got to go to all of the shows, you don't have to miss seeing the band. So I literally will see every single act and he's like, yep, that's why I put this festival together. Right. Exactly. I was like, I'm going to put 10 months into this. I'm going to see what I want to see. Yep. Well, let's talk about Asheville real quick for Halloween because isn't the Grayline trolley tour that we took Karen for Halloween. It's like the history and mysteries and ghost stories towards the haunted door. You guys, this is so much fun. You've got to do it. It's so cool. And I mean, you go where you, where Zelda Fitzgerald was burned in a building, the institution and they say that you can smell her hair burn depending on when you go by. But that tour is pretty epic. I think, and then they have a Christmas one and then people sing Carols and you wish they didn't, but it's funny. Yeah, the haunted door is much more fun. I like the haunted one, but the singing, you think you don't want it, but then you're like, it's funny. It's funny, please stop singing, but then you go, this is funny. It's amazing. Like some people really think they can sing Christmas opera and they can't and you could be sitting there watching someone think they've got it and they don't. We did. It makes an interesting core. Yes. Well, this is where we start talking about Halloween and Christmas all at the same time. This is exactly it. That proves it. I mean, when someone starts singing Christmas songs on a trolley tour and thinking they've got the opera thing going down a hundred percent, I feel like we're now in Halloween. And that's the beauty of Christmas. Yeah. Oh, we know. Oh, how? It was weird. I think I will never forget that and don't take this out on the trolley tour company because they were looking like, whoa, that's fun too. Yes. No, they're fantastic. They do a great job. They have musicians on board and unfortunately the opera voice carries. But you know, don't start a band lady, but that was really cool. Going on the trolley tour, but then Halloween in Asheville, Steve, what would you say people need to do going to Asheville other than, of course, and I'm going to go to Ray on this too, to celebrate Halloween in Asheville, the Heavy Mountain Music and Beer Fest, of course, is going to kick it all off. You know, but what would you say, Steve, that folks should do this time of year? They should come over here and stay at the end. We got more than a thousand kids coming up here all dressed up in their Halloween costumes. We're dropping from candy and we'll probably have some snacks out on the porch and maybe if you cocktail, then we can all have good time while all the kids are having good time. Yeah. It's quite a sight. It's quite a spectacle. Adults only here, please. Yeah. Well, you lost the kids. Yeah. You know, the thing is, the thing is, it's really cool. You guys, you know, have, it, I mean, when you guys dress up the end for Halloween, it is epic because, you know, a mansion can be creepy, but then it's really not when you're inside. It's beautiful. It's beautiful on the outside. Right. Beautiful gardens and everything, but it is epic, guys, I love that you embrace Halloween. I really do because it's so cool to do. They do around here, so. Yeah. It is. It's cute here. Are you going to dress as Elvis again, Steve? Yeah. We were talking about, we're talking about what we're going to do. I'm not, I'm not sure what we're going to do because we have, we want to dress up Lita and something cute. This is our puppy. We're talking about, so. Lita Ford. We want to do. Yes. As in Lita Ford. Yes. That's what we're seeing if we could do like a family costume thing. We're talking about it. We haven't decided yet that we'll let you know. Wow. We got Aussie, the other one, little shitsu. Yeah. Sorry, shitsu. Yeah. Aussie, Aussie, you know, he is, he's like, he has got to be like, I don't know, he's got to be on a plane. All I'm going to say is he needs to have an airplane attached in a snake. That's all I want to say, and when you all meet Aussie, you'll know what I'm talking about. But anyway, I just see like, I don't know, this is be fun. Kids coming in and because, yeah, you're in a neighborhood, that's the other thing. You're in a neighborhood and Asheville has so many neighborhoods. Yeah. Ray, what would you say people should do for Halloween and ask? Oh, I got a plan, I got a planned out for you. So you obviously go to Heavy Mountain Fest and then in between when you have breaks, you go down to the farm down in Hendersonville, which is my favorite haunted house in the area. Oh, and then to tie in our dual holiday theme, I think you should run a couple movies. There's a whole Christmas lasher film genre that I love. Yeah. I love it. Terri, there's three is coming out and then that's going to place up the phone. Oh, it is. The Christmas in Halloween, another one is Santa Claus, L-A-W-S, so that's how I would structure it and then I'd pair it up with a real good fall meal and a fall beer. Yeah. Ooh, it sounds like a good plan. Fall meal. Fall meal. Okay. I didn't know there was anyone coming out. Yep. Restaurant recommendations. Chucky. Home Alone. They need to make that as a thing. But fall food recommendations. Let's go. Ray, any restaurants you want to give a shout out to for a fall meal, like just like, yeah, we're here now. Yeah. I mean, anything that's going to serve, I'm from a pretty basic bitch when it comes to liking pumpkin spice, to be honest. So I'll mess with that. I like pumpkin. It's in that demographic, y'all. Exactly. In the demographic. He's in the spice demographic. Yes. And I do have a favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe as well, so I was definitely referencing that. Oh. Yeah. For sure. We're going on with chocolate chip. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Chocolate. But anything that's going to place emphasis on gravy and sage and butternut squash, I'm here for all of that. Do you have any specific restaurants you like in Asheville? Yeah. Like, I don't know if it has necessarily into a fall theme, but like I love Yukaya, which is actually directly beside the orange peel, really good Japanese smokehouse. Big fan of that, if I want a really good vibe and ambiance, I'm going to go to Zombra for tapas. Mm-hmm. Yeah. It'd be a fan of that as well. So yeah, there's two come to mind immediately as like, okay, what's a couple of your common go-tos? It'll be those two. Oh, and I want to say go on the Asheville rooftop cocktail tour. I wanted the rooftop bars. I think fall is going to be really cool because sunsets are really nice. Oh, yeah. And, you know, when it's not too cold and they have their little fires up in the top. And I haven't done the tour yet, but you know, they've been on the show and I'm just like, I want to go. Yeah. It's a good tour. I keep seeing their board boards every time I go to Asheville, my dude, I need to do this. I need a cocktail and a roof. Like, come on. I do. If you go to the, if you know, if you don't do the rooftop bar tour, you could go stay at the line in the Rose B&B and get their top suite and they have a little balcony and you can play Rapunzel and have a cocktail. And if you stay longer, don't people get a little keg in their room, like a mini keg? Is that still happening? Yeah, maybe. Yeah. Oh, yeah, it is. If you stay four nights, you can get your own little personal in-room tap. I want that. Yeah. I got a question for Steve. Yeah, sure. Steve, what you, uh, what you brewing for the fall that you're excited about? Well, like I said, we'll probably do the dirty good diva that, um, Lisa's talking about it. So I can buy some imperial stout. We do. And it's got, um, some chocolate in there and it's got some other thing that's got a little bit of habanero pepper in there to put a little bit of spice on the back end. Oh, man. That one sounds good. One of my favorite Russian imperials is the wedge does a vatambora with like a ton of redberries. Oh, yeah. Oh, get off of that. Oh, get off. I have not tried that. It's like a junior. All right. But it's, it's phenomenal. Very good. Okay. Good to know. Hey, listen, if you can get some peppers and berries in your back end, I'm all good. It's all right. Yeah. Hey, listen, it's a beer, the beer, that, that last dirty good diva, and you guys saved us. Um, I really appreciated it. Yeah. Because it was so good, um, it worked me like it was really, I think that was the best brew that you've made, Steve, seriously, it, it, you have any left? No, no, no, that's been gone for a while. That's what's, that's about beer and wine and stuff. It just all goes away. It's like temporary art. No, no. It's, it's, you know, it's like you go to a concert and know it's on video and everything, but still go to a live show. You've got to go and immerse yourself because I don't care if you see a video later. It's just not the same. I mean, it's great to see the oldies and goldies and everything that we can on YouTube. But be in it. You're immersed in it is there's nothing like it, but then it goes in. Agree. Yeah. Yep. Yeah. Exactly. Damn it. It makes me mad like, you know. Support live music. You have to support live music. As we know, it can go away real quick and having live music venues like Asheville does is important. Having breweries with live music venues. Also very important. We have, yeah, one hand is for like keeping time and the other one's for drinking beer. You know, do not do the tambourine. Don't. Nobody wants to touch the tambourine. I'm just saying. Just saying. You know I am. Don't unless you know how do not feel like you're adding don't, okay, I'll behave, I'll behave. Um, Stephen Karen, any restaurant recommendations for the fall before I really attack every everybody that's listening about, I can't think anything seasonal. I mean, seasonal, I don't, I can't think of anything offhand. We just know we have, you know, there's so many good restaurants, there's a handful that we like. It just depends on what we feel like by the day. You can never go wrong with the road. What's the place to brewery with a rock bottom? Is that the one that we go to with you? Bottom rock bottle. No. What's the one that we go to the first? Well, we've got. Old rock, that's a flidering. I like that. I like it. It's relaxed. That's good. I mean, downtown and the downtown and there's record stores, people, Asheville has record stores and bookstores like really, like they have real stuff. This is the beauty of Asheville. It's awesome. Yeah. And it's just not hard to drive around either as a city. It doesn't feel like a city to me. You know, I'm in it. It's awesome. Yeah. I like it. Easily walkable. Unbelievable. Yeah. Well, everyone get out there, heavymountainfest.com is the website to go, better go get your tickets now. That's why we're airing it now, beginning of September. Of course, go to lion-rose.com and keep up with Stephen Karen and get your bookings in because the fall, y'all get seriously busy. The fall colors around. I'm just saying start looking like don't wait. Do not sit and go, "Well, I'll talk to my sister and brother or my friend next week." Do it now. I'm telling you. Yeah. We've been there at times where like you can't even get like a motel that's not a price of a resort. I'm just saying. Yeah. I remember that. You guys, you know. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It's competitive during the fall season for a reason and the Biltmore estate at that time is like spectacular. The Arboretum, oh, all of it is just, there's just so much. The fall is epic and it starts now, doesn't it? September is the month. So, yeah. We're getting a little taste of fall next week. Exactly. Actually, when we were just there, I was watching leaves come down and I'm like, "Fall, y'all. And I saw a bear on my way to the grocery store in Asheville." That was amazing. So, the bears around, they're ready, they're happy, well, they're trying to get their food for winter. So, I think there's going to be an early fall. Just personally think that from the nature side, just saying it feels like an early fall, but I could be wrong. I don't know any. Yeah. But I just kind of felt that the last time we were there, I'm like, "Fall is coming. Get your reservations going, listen to me on that part." Right. Thank you so much. We're doing the music festival. I know bands appreciated. Yes, thank you. The music bands appreciate that and the venues as well. It's so important to keep live music alive and you also have beer involved, so that's even more epic.
