My buddy has a Chile Cookoff every year in September, and he asked me to look for a Bluegrass or Newgrass band to perform at the cookoff ...The cookoff location is approx 40 miles north of NYC
on the NJ side of the Hudson River ...If anybody knows of a band that can perform at a reasonable price, ($400 +or _ ) that likes a good time with some good people, and some GREAT food , please let me know .....Thanks for your time..Sincerely, Jim

Hey James--I sent you an email with a couple of real good bands/links. I forgot to mention in the email that the Dixie Beeliners have done affairs like the Brooklyn Brewery BBQ so I'd think that their thing would fit your affair well.
