Well, the Canton Barbecue, Brews and Boos event with a vintage bike show sponsored by Speed Standard Bike Shop was dampened by rain on this past Saturday October 24th, 2020. Despite the imminent rain forecast, there was a substantial turnout for the bike show. The new venue at The Mill On The Etowah is still in the construction phase and where the bike show was setup flooded!
These events led to the show ending early and some of the show participants convening to the after party at The Shuffle Inn. The Shuffle Inn provided a respite for a drier environment with food, beverage and a kicking rockabilly band, Atomic Boogie! The Devil sure could play that standup bass!
Eric and I found ourselves at the Shuffle Inn for Sunday morning brunch and another band, Catfish & The Bottom. These talented guys did mostly original tunes consisting of “fierce funk to folk blues”. Later in the afternoon they had another guys show up to play harmonica with them which intensified their tunes! Good stuff!! www.CatfishAndTheBottomBand.com
Next year let us hope for no rain. As Jeff at Speed Standard says, “It would not be the vintage bike show without it, it is our third year with it”!
