Folks came together for the Bacon and Bourbon Festival at The Ridge Chittenango on Saturday June 10, 2023. Plenty of bacon, bourbon, food, and music filled the day under partly sunny skies and mild temperatures.

Music at this year's fest was provided by Monkey Fever at 2:30pm and The Old Main at 4:20pm. Phil Petroff & The Natural Fact and Showtime closed out the evening's music. The Harmonic Dirt duo performed between sets.

Phil Petroff & The Natural Fact were smoking hot as usual, playing steamy, hard-driving blues, just amazing. Showtime lived up to their reputation of putting on one hell of a great show, performing several covers opening with Tears For Fears - Everybody Wants To Rule The World, Michael Jacksons - Rock With You, and Totos Africa, to name a few, as close to perfection as any band can get.
