edger Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Will do. Made it to Homegrown for Diesel Dog and really enjoyed the place and the local brews. Living in Waterloo now so a little tougher to make it to the Hammer shows but I'll be back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
