I was saddened to hear on the radio this morning that Hugh’s Room is closing its doors. Over the years, Tuffy P and I have attended so many great performances at this venue, including: the late Tommy Makem, The McGarrigles, Tom Russell, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, the Carolina Chocolate Drops, Ian Tyson, Paul Brady, the annual Banjo Special, The Kruger Brothers, April Verch, Bruce Molsky, Iris Dement, Valdy, Stacey Earle and Mark Stuart and so many more.
