While we're all restricted to our homes, the Band has a weekly ZOOM session on the Internet (as shown in the image above) where we can see each other and exchange ideas, etc.

We've discussed a remote possibility of our next Free Show at the BBQ being July 4, 2020. We will keep everyone advised if this bears fruitiion.
