Bruce, Blues & BBQ drew a large crowd for Saturday afternoon's BBQ dinner in the Bruce Museum and then all were entertained at the concert that night in the Bruce Theater as Leo "Bud" Welch punctuated the show.
Geneva Welch is pictured visiting with Welch and his manager Vencie Varnado during the BBQ dinner and meet and greet. Sounds of Tyme provided the music in the museum where nearly 200 people attended.
Janae Winter and Linda Ward opened the concert in the theater and Vinnie C, above, followed with a Blues perofrmance.
South of Memphis took the stage performing a mixture of their original tunes and some covers.
Welch was the star of the night performing a mixture from his Blues and Gospel albums.
All proceeds from the event went toward the cost of a Blues Trail Marker the town has been approved for that will honor Welch.
