On October 23, 2010 we hosted a Fall Fundraiser featuring PIERCED ARROWS along with DIRTY MARQUEE, most of the BLACK RAINBOW band (Erick, Ivy and crew) and, in a surprise appearance, ALLERGIC TO BULLSHIT, getting back together for the first time in several years. It was an amazing show, heightened by the weather — high winds gusting to 50mph along with cold and driving rain. Over 100 people showed up and we packed the boxcar for the show! Afterwards there was a raucous late night dance party in the barn. Everyone seemed to have a good time and we actually raised some funds for BBCRC projects.

With a surprise appearance by Cinque, all of a sudden the band "Allergic to Bullshit" makes its first appearance in several years. Their songs included the site-appropriate "Train I Ride".

The boxcar was rocking so hard it felt like we were rolling down the tracks.
