#SaturdayThrowback: Did you attend “Foodstock 8” last Sunday?! Sunday, November 6,2022, I covered this bi-annual fundraiser at the Rustic Barn Pub for both RadioRadioX & “The Eastwick Press”. Proceeds & food donations benefitted The Food Pantries For The Capital District. Local bands, Northern Borne, The Tyes, The Hilltown Ramblers, Soul Sky, The Bob Barker Band, & The Mushroom Men performed 6 hours of music for a great cause. According to event organizer, Bob Gamache via Facebook, $1,800.00 dollars was raised. Thank you Mark Emanatian & Bob Gamache for having us cover this for you!! Read about it in this week’s “Eastwick Press” AND on www.radioradiox.com . Thank You!! (Story & Photos by Amy L.

#NationalSelfieDay: Happy “National Selfie Day” everyone!! Figure I throw it back with these two selfies of me here both at home & at the Rustic Barn Pub @rusticbarnpub in Troy,NY with my two musician friends, Johnny Morse @johnnyguitar65 & Peggy Smulsky @peggy_smulsky . The Rustic Barn Pub selfie was taken at last Thursday’s open Mike jam post-Brian Kane show at the Town of Schaghticoke Summer’s Eve Concert Series event! The other selfie I took at home last month after attending “Blue Hand Luke’s” show at Windy Hill Orchard East. This selfie I actually felt pretty, confident, and comfortable with myself!! Hopefully, others out there feel the same way about me and also have the confidence they have about themselves too, regardless of their appearance!! Happy Monday & Happy National Selfie Day!! Stay true and confident to who you are!! (Selfie of me at home by Amy L. Modesti 5/16/2021.

#FBF: Yesterday, my close friends and I went to the Rustic Barn Pub to eat some delicious snacks and did a remembrance toast in memory of our friend, Josh Bloomfield, who passed away on Tuesday from stage 3 bile duct cancer. Tonight after attending Josh’s funeral, Mom and I went back to the restaurant to eat dinner, reminisced about my friend, & showed support for my friend, Chris Sanders @cfsandersmusic !! Thank you again to the Rustic Barn Pub for our delicious meals and sodas, and for that delicious strawberry daiquiris that I needed yesterday after having a sad, stressful week. Thank you Chris for being my friend and for your great musical talents!! Cheers to my friend Josh. May you Rest In Peace and continue to watch over me and all of your friends, family, and your musical community. This one is for you my friend. Cheers! (Photos of drink and of Chris by Amy L.
