Very few places other than the beer festival will you meet stangers and then start pretending you have twig mustaches And a great conversation with Susan regarding the live entertainment: S: I like this song, but this is an awful cover J: This isn't a cover, that is Matthew Good on stage S: I expected him to be older, and he sounds way different than he did in the Patrick Swayze movie. He's really good for a blind guy though. J: Are you thinking of Jeff Heally? S:Maybe.
