January 29, 2011: Bill Staines
Bill Staines There is nothing we can say to longtime members that they haven't heard before, but for our newcomers: Bill is the only performer who has performed here faithfully every season since WHFMS began. He is a stalwart New England Cowboy, a national treasure, a brilliant left-handed guitarist, and a singer-songwriter and storyteller to rival the very best in the land. Bill is guaranteed to warm your heart with nostalgia for the past as well as optimism for the future. Be there.
