We had a little scheduling snafu for Sunday - so, no Double Dads on Father’s Day.

Over the last couple weeks, you wonderful supporters have sent us to a new amazing milestone! Over 7,000 Facebook followers and over 4,000 on the gram! We are so humbled by the support of our little operation and our super special local music community!

With that being said…a lot of you might be new here! Welcome! Here’s some helpful information:

🍺 DO. NOT. BRING. YOUR. OWN. BOOZE! We will take it, dump it, and shame you.

🍺 Please be mindful of where you park. Make the most of our lot, look for a space in the grass fenced off next to the lot, or park your car completely OFF the road. If you cannot, there is unfortunately no room for you at Bernie’s.

🍺 We are next to a SWAMP! We highly recommend bringing bug repellant.

🍺 NO PETS. NO KIDS. We are 21+ all the time, folks.

Thanks for being here! See ya tomorrow in the field for MJB 4-7!
