Big Head Todd and the Monsters put on a great show last night. Todd Park Mohr led the Capitol Theater crowd through a memorable set list.  They came out strong with John Lee Hooker‘s  “Boom Boom” and later played the expected BHTM classics: “Resignation Superman”,  “Broken Hearted Savior” and “Bittersweet”.  The band felt really interested in showing it’s fans a good time and ended with a powerful encore version of  “Circle”.

Warm summer breezes, a multitude of colorful dragon flies and good bluegrass and traditional music greeted those who attended the 2010 Sugar Maple Festival.
