- Aug 11, 2026, 10:06 PMChained to Stone's bandmates contains some of the nicest people I've ever met in my life, in particular Josh. The band really brought their hard-rock 90's vibe to be such a strong M&M opener. It had also been too long since I'd see Precious Byrd, and they never disappoint! As far as consummate entertainers, there is not much better in Central Oreogn than Precious Byrd.
During Chained to Stone's opening act, I had a rather magical reunion with someone I love dearly and deeply and hadn't seen in almost two years. I credit the power of music for bringing us to the same exact spot, where we not only embraced, but healed. I saw many friends this night, but only got a single snap with my dear friend Cathy, who was with her consistently extraordinary beau George.
