Greensboro is fortunate to have so much good, live music. The above photo was taken yesterday at the Ham's Restaurant on New Garden Road. We're not sure who the musician was, as Ham's has their Friday live music schedule published on their website, but this was a Thursday event. The musician was very good and the weather was fabulous. To be sure, deciding to dine outside was not a hard decision.
Live music can be heard at many of Greensboro's local restaurants and breweries (Lucky 32, Blue Denim, Joymongers, Gibbs Hundred, to name a few). And then we have the theatres and city parks that offer live music. MUSEP concerts have started back up on Sunday afternoons. So much of this music free, or complimentary when one is dining.
Perhaps Greensboro has so many talented musicians because our local colleges and universities have very strong music programs, as do many of our religious organizations. If anybody knows the name of the above musician, please let us know. We'd love to hear him again. Ham's started in Greensboro in 1935. That's over eighty years of good food, good times, and now, good music. Tonight, Jukebox Revolver is playing at Ham's. They bill themselves as an energized, versatile, four-piece party band that plays music from the 1950's to today. It is Friday! You owe it to yourself to hear some live music. Whatever you decide to do, have a great weekend!
It looks like a pleasant spot to dine in.
