Robby & I love bluegrass music... its't kinda a must if you live in Duluth. Last weekend when we were in Ashby there was a bluegrass band from Duluth playing near Fergus Falls.... The Hobo Nephews of Uncle Frank. We really love this band and were excited to go listen to them live with my family! Turns out it was the most awkward, weird, unpredictable night ever. First the Roller Derby girls were there skating around for a fundraiser selling shots (what?). My uncle Gary gave in and bought the table a round... i'm pretty sure it was kool-aid. We thought that the Hobo Nephews played at 9pm but it turns out there was a band playing before them (Blameshift) that was alternative hard rock which is not my type of music AT ALL. So we had to sit through 5 songs of loud (opposite of bluegrass) music. Who thinks it's okay to schedule a hard rock & bluegrass band on the same night AND have the bluegrass band play last? That's just messed up. It was after 11pm by the time the Hobo Nephews started playing... and the Balgaards were tired! We danced to a few songs and then headed home. I was sooooo dissapointed! I guess we will just have to catch their next show in Duluth!
Barbie & Gary - not too impressed with Blameshift.
Dad. Also, not impressed with Blameshift. This is what he looked like the whole time!
Robby - he was a fan of Blameshift. Me, not so much.
And the biggest fan of Blameshift... Heidi.
She loved them so much that she got a picture and autographed cd!
She is set for when they make it big.
Robby was excited to share our 1st ever shot together (i'm still convinced it was kool-aid). Thanks Uncle Gary!
We bought the CD incase we had to ditch out early
at least we could listen to them in the car on the ride home.
After much anticipation... The Hobo Nephews! Completely worth the wait.
Sam & Heidi... so cute and so in love.
Dancin' like the hippies in the Brewhouse.

You're so cute. Sounds like a fun night despite the unpredictability. At the very least, makes for a great story :)
