Speisekammer Restaurant owner, Cindy Kahl taped us performing “Magdalena’s Revenge” at their recent Spring Fest. Thanks, Cindy!

The Springfest was so much fun! Here’s more proof:

Beer Holding Contest with Johny Blood adding tuba excitement. Our Brian Rourke and David Groff tried their arms at it.

Women’s Beer Drinking Contest with yours madly competing.

And the Beer Drinking Contest. You’ll here our “Pica Pica Polka” underscoring the guzzling.
