Ramshackle’s headliner Town Mountain was unable to play on the main stage because of the June 7 rainstorm that got the area wet, but that did not keep the band from playing. “We were very thankful they played acoustic in front of Reeves Outdoor Center,” said Sonya Shook of Reeves and the CMBA president. “It was a cool experience for the fans that came and listened to them play.”
