Hey ya'll... looky here...

Either there are a lot of bands in Greensboro hungering for a gig... or ... the Hoggards have way more musician friends than we ever realized.  The HoggFest band schedule is up over at Greensboro101.

I'm getting over my shyness about this whole affair, this damn thing is turning into a real party.
