Bob Mann's Big Hat Promotions backyard concert series continues with "An Evening of Cowboy Campfire Poetry and Song" with Gary Robertson and Eddie Villalobos on Sat., July 31. (Doors open for barbecue at 5:30 PM, concert starts at 7 PM)
One of our favorite cowboy poets, Gary Robertson has been writing about the daily trials and tribulations of the cowboy and rancher for over 25 years. His poetry has appeared in the Chickasaw Times, Capriolas Catalogue, American Cowboy Magazine, and several local newspapers. One of his poems was chosen to be included in the book "Cowboy Poetry: the Reunion" and he is a featured poet on CowboyPoetry.com.Suggested donation $20.00 per person includes refreshments. Reserve early at big.hat@sbcglobal.net
Gary has entertained audiences at the Colorado Cowboy Poetry Gathering, Arizona Cowboy Poetry Gathering, Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival, Cowboy Hall of Fame, Autry National Center, The Conejo Cowboy Poetry Festival, and Big Bear Cowboy Poetry Gathering.
Eddie Villalobos rounds out the evening with fine Western song. Eddie is gifted with an excellent voice and fine guitar playing. When Eddie starts to sing, he quickly has the audience in the palm of his hand. Eddie has performed at the Autry National Center, Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival and the Visalia Fall Roundup.
Gary and Eddie are the genuine article. This will be Gary's third performance in our backyard concert series, and the second appearance for Eddie.
