Glass City Opry

David Davis at Glass City

David Davis and the Warrior River Boys appeared at the Glass City Opry, Maumee Ohio on October 12, 2009.  The Monday evening show drew a good crowd, perhaps larger than I had expected.  This may be due to Dave’s popularity in the area.  The shows at Glass City have been going on for a while, perhaps the fan base for bluegrass in the area is more aware and watching for their favorite acts.

Obvious local favorites, Bridge County, opened the show with a half hour set.

The main course began just a little after 7:30.  David and the band were very powerful.

Bradford Folk was “guesting” (David’s term) with the band in place of guitar player Adam Duke. Brad also sang a couple of songs, a real treat.

I sure hope we will have the opportunity to see the Warrior River Boys somewhere again soon!

Michael Cleveland at Glass City

We were able to make a quick trip down to Maumee, Ohio to see Michael Cleveland and Flamekeeper on Friday, August 21. It was the first time we had see the group with new member Tom Adams on guitar and vocals.

The Glass City Opry was celebrating their second anniversary, what a great way to do it!

It was a wonderful show, I especially enjoyed seeing Michael and Jesse Brock perform their version Jerusalem Ridge, which has received a well-deserved IBMA nomination for Recorded Event of the Year. We’ve see them do it four or five times, and each time it amazes me more.

Here is one more picture from the event, click on the link at the right to see them all.
