Missouri fiddle contests

Before we left the St. Louis area we went to several fiddle contests, where we got to meet up with some out of town friends (I guess we are out of town now :) and hear some great music. Saturday was at Stovall's, an old dance hall/tavern in Wildwood, MO with lots of character and tasty BBQ. This contest was put on by the Missouri Fiddlers Country Music Association, of which Vesta and Steve Hall are the main organizers. Lots of great talent! The photos are of Matt and I playing then of the 1st thru 3rd place open division winners with Steve on the bass, plus one of Matt and Vesta.
