NotesThe Link will take to many old videos of past MBS Festivals....I thought the timing was good It's youtube so there may be some non-MBS shows in the mix. Here is some help for those who may not know how to open the video links. If using my email list: Click the "Event Name" link and another window will open up. Under Contact, Click either the Event Website or Facebook link This should take you to the Video source. If using my website: Click the plus sign on far right side of listing and this will expand the window for the listing. Under Contact, Click either the Event Website or Facebook link This should take you to the Video source. If you want to simply copy the url, for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kFtM3s4Lfyo from the Blind Lemons listing and paste this in your internet browser (Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge etc) This should bring you to video source. Any questions please let me know. I'm blessed to still have a day job so response may not be immediate.
