The Bedlam Bards
2007
Shindig Tour
Schedule

 

We're pleased to announce our first ever Shindig Tour, with appearances all across the eastern United States.

 At each stop along the way, we'll join the local Browncoats, BedHeads, and rennies to raise money for various charities and organizations, including Equality Now. A number of Browncoat vendors have donated prizes for charity raffles in each concert.

 These Shindig Concerts promise to be incredible fun, so plan now on attending one in a town near you!
