2nd Annual Richmond Roots Musical Extravaganza!

by | Dec 31, 2009 | COMMUNITY

Seeing whoop-ass bluegrass on NYE has become somewhat of a Richmond tradition. Last year, The Hot Seats (formerly, Special Ed and the Short Bus Bluegrass Band) and Jackass Flats teamed up, and this year is no different. The show starts at 8:30 at The Camel and is sure to be a dancing-on-tables whiskey drinking kind of night. $20 gets you through the door & a champagne toast.
