I have now read a second piece in the Gazette about the Playing it Forward campaign at The Iron Horse that fails to mention any of the bands who have donated their time, energy, and love of music to the effort. There have been at least two shows since last September featuring local amateur musicians who love the venue and the community who gladly performed to houses full of paying music lovers. Everyone who participated, on and off the stage, deserves a thank you. I would like to thank all of them here.
