Hello folks,
Have you purchased your tickets yet?????.  Just a reminder of the great oppurtunity to see a great band in your own backyard for only fifteen bucks.....The only way to have bluegrass is Bakersfield is to support the effort to get it started.  Tell your friends about the show and come on out.  It will be a fun evening with top notch music.
 
Russell Moore and IIIrd Tyme Out ......IN BAKERSFIELD.  That's right folks. We have secured the band and the venue.  You might be saying who is Roger Moore and IIIrd Tyme Out?  Well read on. As the saying goes, “The proof is in the pudding,” and there is no greater proof of the band’s status as one of the world’s top bluegrass groups than its seven  IBMA (International Bluegrass Music Association) awards for ‘Vocal Group of the Year’ and Russell Moore’s two IBMA ‘Male Vocalist of the Year’ trophies. All in all, IIIrd Tyme Out has garnered over 50 industry awards, the last two being ‘Bluegrass Band of the Year’ and ‘Male Vocalist of the Year’ (Russell Moore), both from the Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music in America (SPBGMA) Here is your chance to see seven time IBMA group of the year and two time IBMA male vocalist Russell Moore up close and personal. The concert will be held on September 11th. at 7:00 at River Valley Community Church, 5131 Office Park Dr. Bakersfield, Ca.  Ticket prices will be $15.00 in advance $18.00 at the door.  Tickets are available at the Music Zone 2808 Chester Ave. 661-321-3357 or Dagny's Coffee Shop or you can contact Kelvin 392-7973 or Craig 589-8249.
