ROBERTβS TOTALLY RAD TRIVIA
Every Monday, at 7:00 PM, come on down
Trivia with Billy is Asheville’s best eclectic trivia night. This blend of factoids, music knowledge, and critical thinking is guaranteed to have a little bit for everyone. A diverse team of thinkers is a must if you want to win. There are bonuses prizes on nights with 10+ teams, if your team beats the ever-present brewery team, and for best team name. This trivia takes a lot more than just being good at Jeopardy! This is the perfect way to extend your weekend, or start your week. As a wise man once said, “I drink and I know things,” and this is your chance to prove it!

Trivia Every Thursday w/ Not Rocket Science
TheΒ Blue Ridge Music TrailsΒ is hosting a benefit concert atΒ White HorseΒ in Black Mountain on November 14, 2024, at 7 p.m. We invite you to attend and support the traditional music artists in Western North Carolina post-Hurricane Helene.Β
Headlining the show will beΒ Unspoken Tradition, a chart-topping quintet hailing from Western and Central North Carolina. Their music is influenced by their lives and roots in traditional and new grass music, as is evident in their quality catalog of unique songs. Several of their singles have topped the Billboard Bluegrass and Bluegrass Today charts. They took the stage at the 2024 IBMA Bluegrass Live! concert.
Unspoken Tradition has also been busy dedicating time and raising money for their home state the past month. Weβre excited to have them play this event, bringing more joy to the region and providing hope and levity as we focus on lifting up this regionβs rich and enduring music scene.
Tickets will be available in advance and at the door. Due to the impact of Tropical Storm Helene this is a pay-what-you-can event. A portion of the proceeds will support the Blue Ridge Music Trails artists, with the other portion going towards charities of White Horseβs choice. Together, we continue to support our communities. If you cannot make the event but would like to help, please consider donating to the Blue Ridge Music Trails at:Β https://www.blueridgemusicnc.com/donate/
