Plymouth's Matt Whipple teamed up with Liz Bettencourt for three songs that turned into countless songs. The folks at Paddy's wouldn't let them stop.
Full Moon Revue's Brian Fay stormed in and proceeded to own the joint. Nobody could resist his performing prowess, least of all Chuck Whelan, who leapt up to join Brian on an a cappella Irish ballad.
Everyone knows him as Scotty, but his formal name is Scott Bowser. Folks at the Holy Ground enjoy his Wednesday acoustic jam. Scott is a phenomenal guitarist and singer, and a heck of a nice guy to boot.

Mark "Himself" popped in en route from one of his many gigs. Mark has been a force of nature in New England for many years—an accomplished singer/songwriter and a first-rate showman.

For the first time ever, Brian graced us with his tunes. He's the proud owner of a brand-new Breedlove guitar, and couldn't restrain himself any longer.
Justin treated us to more mood pieces and space-age blues.
Retro Brit-pop? I don't know—I think it's too good to be labeled.
Brendan was so eager to come back again that he got a baby-sitter.
