Last night I again had a chance to watch Hal Atkinson perform. It was a small get-together of Stoney Creek Inn, mostly the folks that performed in the 20th Lindy Shannon Re-union Concert on Sunday were there. Again I was struck by how much musical talent is or was from this area. Beth Timte, Jeff Cozy, Harold Jerue, Tari Tovsen, Dennis Roessler and several others were there and many performed in impromptu fashion. And at the center was Hal Atkinson, molding the offerings, keeping the flow. Here's to all you guys. By the way the photo was taken last Wednesday when I was interviewing Hal on the Eagle.
