We are fortunate that the WHEELS Museum holds one hour concerts fairly frequently. This gives the community a chance come early to see all the fun things the museum has to offer, and also be entertained by world-class musicians.
The next concert will be held in less than two weeks. Details below. Reserve now - the concert is almost sold old!
Bob Bovee - Long Steel Rails Concert February 16
There was no greater force in the development of the United States than the railroads, especially in our area of the USA.
Well-known troubadour, Bob Bovee will perform songs and tell tales about the famous trains, rail workers, hobos, train wrecks and robbers. Casey Jones, The Wabash Cannonball, and John Henry are as vital and expressive as any pieces of American Folklore. Get on board - reserve now!
Bob has performed on “The Prairie Home Companion.” It’s been said that nobody performs old time cowboy and humorous songs better than Bob. He’ll play banjo, guitar, harmonica, and autoharp while singing and telling these wonderful stories.
