Arma Secreta played a show for us back when we still fit in backyards-- the 2007 season. This time around, they rocked even harder. They wowed the crowd with their mathematical precision, awesome changes, and memorable riffs.
Next up was the EPIC performance by the Wuvbirds. This is the new band which includes two RnR board members, Kate and Corey Crowder. This was a feast for the eyes and ears, featuring dance performances by 40 kids, costume changes, and props. This band was loads of fun, and Kate especially deserves a hand for organizing and directing the kids, in addition to her normal role of making sweet music.
This lady was simply stunned at the amount of fun happening onstage:
We also had a cool craft table for the kids to make their own Wuvbirds. Thanks to Melissa Farris for making this happen.
Last up was Rising Star Fife & Drum Band, which impressed us all with the simple instrumentation of a bass drum, snare, and a fife (which is a type of flute).
What a fun show! Thanks to the Shell and to everybody who came out-- you guys never let us down! Also, special thanks to our volunteers, who really make it happen: Mary Cashiola, Elizabeth Cawein, Colleen Couch-Smith, Allen Elliotte, Anna Ellis, Melissa Farris, Fred & Cathy Freres, Monika Haynes, Allison Hennie, Corrine Hutchison, Grace Korzekwa, Jenifer Meeks, Anna Mullins, William Pearson, and Joanna & Talyon Swan. Thanks as always to Central BBQ for their continued support, and to Trolley Stop Market for the delicious pizza.

Next up we've got an awesome downtown holiday show on December 3rd, more details to come. See you there!
