Entertainment Along the Ohio River...

Some of our folks headed out east of Cincinnati again to the New Richmond area. As is becoming expected, the Village and surrounding area was filled with music and other fun. From the Green Kayak, to Front Street to Andouilles, Saturday was happening. We are very excited to spend time in New Richmond over the summer months, as we expect the music, laughs and fun will continue. In fact, if you have any ideas for events please leave them as comments on our blog--- we hear folks in the Village are checking in regularly...

Friday and Saturday night showcased both the new and old on the music scene. The Green Kayak featured the Denver Young Band. This is a very fun, energetic, new-on-the-scene 3 piece band playing a mix of country music classics and originals. Keep an eye on these guys. They are going somewhere big....

Just down the road, on Saturday, at Andouilles were the Goshorn Brothers. These guys (formerly of Pure Prairie League) have been playing for decades and you can tell. There sets are tight and appear effortless. True professionals. In between the Kayak and Andouilles sits the Front Street Cafe who featured the 3 person version of Robin Lacey's band, "We Three." Like the Goshorn Brothers, Robin is a veteran and amazingly talented performer who calls this Village area home. What a night!

After enjoying the Goshorn Brothers for awhile, we headed back down to the Kayak for another version of Comedy on the River. As in the past, we were not disappointed. Led again by the person they call "D.O.C" (Loraine), her and three other comics (Mike Cronin https://www.facebook.com/bonesnake3/photos_stream#!/bonesnake3 , Mike Berlon https://www.facebook.com/MikeBerlonComedy?fref=ts  and Dave Hyden https://www.facebook.com/search/results.php?q=dave%20hyden&init=quick&tas=0.8279766252431346#!/hyden2 )  left people with countless laughs. If you haven't experienced Comedy at the Kayak then you are missing an incredibly great and affordable night out.  We were told that it's the third Saturday of each month, until further notice......

On the Kayak topic, next time we get down we will take some pictures. This place continues to evolve and reminds us of a visit to New Orleans. Old 1800's vintage brick, long beautiful bar (with great back story), great stage, excellent food and a real "laid back" feel. Contrasted down the road is the Front Street Cafe with a little more formal feel, great food and a view of the river equal to the Kayak. Just outside New Richmond sits Andouilles with excellent Cajun food and, as noted above, great entertainment.....Heading out east couldn't be much more fun!!
