Thinking of our friend, Bob Queen!
"Bob Queen is THE pioneer of live music festivals in Madison with his fingerprint on nearly every single one.
His keen sense of booking is legendary, his sense of humor memorable. Bob knew how to throw a party and make you feel good! After all, he was in the pursuit of happiness. Long live the Queen!
