904 February 16, 2023 Bug Guts And Tony Feathers

I took a good 4.5 mile walk along the base of the mountains, by the churches, around the circle and back up the long hill.

Only one bighorn picture today…lol.

We did a little shopping in town.

We spent a quiet afternoon.  I was happy reading a good book.

This evening we went to the Borrego Performing Arts Center to listen to live music.  This is an intimate little theater that seats about 250 people.  The house was full tonight.

The opening performer was Tony Feathers.  He is a local guy who is a gifted storyteller.  He could also really play the guitar.  He grew up in rural Tennessee.  His songs are about home, his grandparents, and his cat.  He was real and we very much enjoyed his music.

The main show was Bug Guts.  They are an acoustic duo that plays very quirky and creative music…a combination of folk, alternative, and punk.  The girl was dressed in Doc Martins, black cutout leggings, a black lace tutu, a leather jacket and a cheetah print cowboy hat.  She had blue hair.  Her music was as eclectic as her costume.  She really knew how to use her voice as an instrument.  The guy was a truly gifted guitarist…those fingers!! They harmonized beautifully.  Their songs were edgy, tongue in cheek, thought provoking, and silly. 

A fun night!
