The featured artists will be David Boyd, Vicki Pompea, Barbara Rose and Ronnie Owens.
Then, on Saturday, Nov. 11, musicians Josh Dillard and Luke Flowers will take the stage.
Boyd is a guitarist who splits his time between Fort Collins and Vienna, Austria. He will be play as a solo act in Fort Collins, but his band “Davey and the Blu Dog” has made its way around Austria as a rock blues trio.
Pompea is a folksinger and songwriter from Fort Collins whose music has been described as folk-rock, similar to the likes of Joni Mitchell or James Taylor.
Also on the bill is Ronnie Owens whose music is inspired by the gospel and country sounds he grew up with.
Saturday also promises to be an eventful night with Josh Dillard, a Fort Collins musician whose inspiration comes from the works of Bob Dylan and Paul Simon.
Luke Flowers will also perform, bringing to the stage a small-town feel inspired from his hometown of Buena Vista.

|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)
We call it insight, you call it what you will. | |

|  | What is up FoCo?
I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!
