My friend Beth Mason, has been sick. She suddenly got sick about a month ago and progressed to be diagnosed with Anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. Her and her husband, Tate just released a CD with their band, IDYLTIME. The band is raising money to help pay for the outrageous hospital bills. She is still in the hospital and fighting to get better. Please support this amazing couple.

The Hokum Hoedown features the infectious swing of the Hokum Hi-Flyers acoustic string band. At each Hoedown (first Friday of every month), the Hokum boys perform a diverse assortment of traditional folk-dance and string-band tunes while a cast of colorful callers directs the dances.

In addition to square dancing, the Hokum Hoedown features some good old-fashioned, swingin', two-steppin' western dancing. Young and old, couples and families, tattooed hipsters and ten-gallon cowboys ... the Hokum Hoedown is a come-as-you-are, hand-clappin' hootenanny for all.
