SUMMARY:Bill Loses His Locks – A Fundraiser for JAMS
DESCRIPTION:\n HAPPENING JULY 25TH at GOODTIMES! \nCome on out Friday, July 25th from 6–8 PM for a one-of-a-kind, only-in-Appalachia kind of night!\n\n\nLocal legend Bill Smith is putting his HAIR where his heart is — he’s cutting off his iconic ponytail and beard to raise money for JAMS (Junior Appalachian Music School), an organization devoted to keeping mountain music traditions alive by teaching local youth how to play, listen, and feel the music of their region.\n\n\nThe twist? He’s getting trimmed live on stage by none other than Jim Lloyd — a professional barber, cherished old-time musician, and master storyteller. And yes… Jim will be roasting Bill the entire time. You don’t want to miss this!\n\n\n Live music throughout the evening from:\n• Jim Lloyd\n• Bill Smith — H William Smith\n• A few musical friends — including Richard Phillips and more!\n\n\n Hair will be auctioned. Bread might be too. Donations will be accepted all evening — every dollar supports the mission of WiseJams – Big Stone Gap, which provides accessible, after-school music programs that introduce children (typically grades 4–8) to Appalachian instruments and oral traditions through small group instruction, community mentorship, and cultural storytelling.\n\n\nCome for the music, stay for the mayhem, and leave with a heart full of heritage. \n\n\n GoodTimes Coal-Fired Pizza & Pub\n215 Wood Ave E. big Stone Gap\n Friday, July 25 • 6–8 PM\n Admission: FREE — donations encouraged\n\n\n Proudly Sponsored by:\n Big Stone Gap Girl – covering Jim Lloyd’s travel so all donations go directly to WiseJAMS\n\n\n#JAMSFundraiser ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/jamsfundraiser?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #WiseJAMS ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/wisejams?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #AppalachianHeritage ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/appalachianheritage?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #SupportTheArts ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/supportthearts?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #GoodTimesLive ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/goodtimeslive?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #HairTodayGoneTomorrow ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/hairtodaygonetomorrow?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #CoalFiredAndHeartFelt ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/coalfiredandheartfelt?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #BigStoneGapEvents ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/bigstonegapevents?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #JimLloyd ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/jimlloyd?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #BillSmith ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/billsmith?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #RichardPhillips ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/richardphillips?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #MountainMusicMatters ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/mountainmusicmatters?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #BigStoneGapGirl ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/bigstonegapgirl?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R ) #SupportLocalMusic ( https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/supportlocalmusic?__eep__=6&__cft__[0]=AZU84R6L-1gcaYZxhuB6fKiJriYwy2ymGlXL_c9wv_Kl7tpiPXiF62caLs8ERNNe9cEha7tGj85csDF4fqv48ve4DkpdbDmcKfwRdXSPCrwozLX6LGCLxXRG2pO71mhyGfdu26lQl1DwcZLFdG8tj6vb2XDXHoVbBuf3YOEO2XjiXUYD_wm4H_I7rGXQ2dchW5Q&__tn__=*NK-R )\n\n
