This is awesome! I love that you have taken the beautiful historic Milwald theatre and featured the future of old time music there. What you’re seeing is the current artists that are preserving our musical heritage and teaching the youth of the area about their Heritage that as they get older will pass it on to their children. Good job Jim Lloyd!

Darn, Milwald. These computers sometimes get it wrong even if I try to get it right.

It’s supposed to have two L’s in it but the system won’t let me spell it right.
