The Mighty Crows pass probation at Sam's
We've been playing the "every 5th Tuesday" at Sam's BBQ in San Jose for just short of one year. That works out to about four shows a year because, let's face it, there just isn't five Tuesdays in every month! Well there is a fourth Wednesday every month and that's where you'll find the Crows starting in July. A little bit of math is all it takes to figure out that you can see us 12 times a year at this particular location. BBQ, cold beers, the Crows...good times.

Mark and Ken's other band, Hyperbole Mountain, is going to play a short set before hand. Show up by 5:30, if the spirit moves you.

Call and reserve a table! Last time we had a full house and a few unhappy campers had to sit inside and miss the music.

We played here in May and it was, as Mark would say, fabulous. Beautiful weather, beautiful people and so on and so forth!  Come enjoy the drive, the beach, the patio, the food and the bluegrass.

Friday to Sunday, August 8th - 10th
Good Old FashionedGood Old Fashioned Festival
Bolado Park in Hollister

This is the Northern California Bluegrass Society's big party every year. It is a three day long showcase of local bands old and new. And...it's an all out all night picking party since just about everybody who likes to pick is there. Bring your sunscreen, a floppy hat and a cooler full of beer. You can keep the floppy hat but you ought to share the rest with the Crows. We played just as the sun went down and last year and it was mighty fine. We play Saturday night at 7:00 this year and hope you join us.

That's right. We're back at Sam's for another evening of summer fun on our new "every fourth Wednesday" schedule. Cold beer, BBQ and bluegrass with the Crows. Is there anything more all American than that? Get your reservations early. Last time we sold out and had some unhappy campers.

Palo Alto Lawn Bowls Club

This is a private party for the Palo Alto Lawn Bowls Club. The good news is that the club rents out the building very reasonably and puts on introductory lawn bowling parties. You could throw your own Mighty Crows lawn bowling party!

Brown Barn Blugrass Festival in San Martin

The festival takes place September 5th - 7th at the San Martin Country Park at 13865 Monterey Highway San Martin, CA (near Gilroy, CA).

The Crows played at the very first one a few years ago for Jake Quesenberry. We couldn't do it last year but this year we'll be playing Saturday night at 8:00. You should come for the whole thing.


Saturday and Sunday, September 13th - 14th
Anderson Marsh Festival in Clearlake

Our friends the Barefoot Nellies went there last year and said they had a good time. Our friend Buck Buckner who helps organize it said he thought it was a good time. Don Coffin who books it called and said we should come up, play a couple sets and have a good time. It really sounds like it might be a good time. It's a couple hours north of San Francisco and rumor has it there's a lake somewhere near there.
