Bob Dylan Tribute

The Bob Dylan Tribute, part of the Mid Ohio Valley Americana Music Tribute Series of live music fund raising events for the CHS-Parkersburg site, was held this past Friday evening at 6 Pence Pub, Parkersburg. We had a great line up of musicians, seven acts in all, and an enthusiastic crowd. We had a couple of Bob Dylan Trivia contests throughout the evening, celebrating the music of Bob Dylan and his 50 years of performing. The event raised $850; bringing the total so far this year for the Americana Music Series to $4954. Our CHS-Parkersburg site's own Aaron Whited performed a set of spirited song selections to rave reviews. Several other long time participants also had sets, while local music "legends" Jimmy Clinton and Todd Burge performed an exquisite set. Jeremy Mayle, another local musician of note, performed a set of his favorite songwriter's work. We thank Kim at 6 Pence once again, for hosting our series events there.
