Keeper1st | 2001 Sutter Creek Ragtime Festival Concert excerpts; Nan Bostick, Tom Brier, others @Keeper1st | Uploaded November 2017 | Updated October 2024, 4 days ago.
I was asked to digitize a deteriorating videotape containing most of a concert in which repeated comedic attempts were made to distract the freshly bearded "Hot Rod Tommy" Brier into missing a note.

It features the late Nan Bostick (whose family recorded this), Tom Brier, Stevens Price, Elliott Adams, John Remmers, and Keith Taylor, as well as a brief clip of Kathi Backus whose performance for some reason was not fully captured (maybe they needed to change the battery in the camcorder).

A brief shot of the late Gil Lieberknecht (a.k.a. Gil Lieby) can be seen when they introduce and after playing the first of a few of his pieces that they play.
