M Shanghai String Band

Who knew? The M Shanghai String Band from NY performing on the Wonderland Ballroom patio for a free afternoon show! Goes well with bottomless mimosas.

Despite the fact I'd unlikely seek out such a performance, they were talented and I enjoyed the music. The dozen children running around, the nursing new mother, the two crack heads shaking in the corner, and the woman knitting at our table, I could do without. Iris referred to it as a flashback to 1972 West Virginia with the folksy music and the oddities of the crowd.

Check out their website or the YouTube video I snagged below. They use the word, "Chimney," in the song. We have to appreciate that! Time to rejuvenate for the work week.
