A message from Robert J: Breaking News (not fake) from Barland!

In my 48 years of playing music in Barland, I've only missed a handful of gigs. I've played shows with colds (sponsored by Nyquil), shows with broken bones (sponsored by pain meds), shows with a broken heart (sponsored by tequila) and I've missed a few shows when my kids were sick. Now unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 virus, and the fact that I'm in the high risk age group and having pre-existing conditions, I have to bow out of the rest of my shows for awhile. My heart goes out to so many others who are affected by this pandemic, our bartenders, servers, small businesses and so many, many other's. We all will have to sacrifice and pull together for the common good. With that in mind, I have some extra TP. If you need some, I can share a roll or two. Just message me and I'll leave some on my front porch for drive by pick up! .....AND, as soon as possible, I hope to get together with y'all and play some music, "Hanging Out In Barland"! PEACE!
