We had a blast and can't wait for next year! You may or may not have noticed we were a little less "Beardy" than usual with the absence of our guitarist Todd. Todd and his wife were expecting, and their son came on the 18th, so our buddy Mike Pingle filled in for the show! So, thanks to Mike, and Congrats to Todd!
