It’s October. The pumpkins are ripe. And color is coming to the mountains. Richard Adams is ready to celebrate. The Richard Adams’ Variety Show joins the Fall Foliage Festival with his own Oktoberfest at WTA’s Gateway, 329 West Main in Downtown Waynesboro. He has gathered an Oom Pah Band and a special rendition of Die Drie Kleinen Schweinchen. Join him at 7:30pm on Friday, October 4. Feel free to don your lederhosen and dirndles and join the fun. Or come as you are.
Joining Richard’s Oktoberfest Express will be Rhythm Road’s German section with Jim Harrington, Buddy Thomas, and Chris Wray playing your favorite German oom Pah tunes and Waltzes. Frau Dee von Lohr will add a touch of authenticity with her rendering of the universal story of the three pigs.
