Microwave Dave Day in Huntsville, AL

6/30/2015

0 Comments

 
Sunday, June 28, 2015 was declared Microwave Dave Day in Huntsville, Alabama.  Dave Gallaher is a local legend and stalwart bluesman, along with his band, the Nukes, favorites at area dives and juke joints for the past 27 years--not to mention, one of the craftiest guitarist now picking.

Congratulations, Dave!

Bottoms up, Dave!

Easy one hour hike leaving The Little Green Store at 1:00pm.  A rare opportunity to visit Ella's Rock and the Hotel Monte Sano's old chimney, both on private property.  A display of artifacts from the hotel will be in The Little Green Store.  Spring has finally sprung on the mountain, so come and join us.
