FunDrive Concert At the Wilsler’s Room
Saturday we had an event to raise money for CHSR’s FunDrive at the Wilsler’s room. That’s a nice spot in the Capital Complex. It’s a cozy room with really nice acoustics, decent bar prices, and a nice layout for performers and spectators. I think the only odd part is that the entrance is on the
