Well if there is something going on at "The Barn" it's probably gonna be good. A really wonderful venue and worth a visit. In case you're not familiar with local musical history, Levon was a founding member of The Band. His daughter, Amy Helm, is a frequent performer. If the Midnight Ramblers are doing a gig, don't miss it.
