The Boothill Betterment Society directed "Young Cowboy Bob" (Richard Passmore) to Laredo, Texas, where he could find some cows for his cattle drive.
Bridger Blend Quartet took us to the "Y'all Come Back Saloon", where Cowboy Bob met his wife.
I Wanna Be a Cowboy's Sweetheart!
If only Cowboy Bob had been with General Custer at the Battle of the Little Bighorn...
this might not have happened!
The Bridger Mountain Harmony Chorus sang two songs, then joined the Chord Rustlers to sing America the Beautiful.
The show closed with the entire cast and barbershoppers from the audience reminding everyone to Keep the Whole World Singing.
At the afterglow, Gary Tschache, our ticket guru, was honored as a member of the Chord Rustlers of the Barbershop Harmony Society.
One afterglow highlight was when MaxQ's Jeff Oxley joined 3 Bloxhams for a stirring rendition of This Is the Moment.
