Are these people having too much fun? Quite possibly - but so is the audience.
Stone Mountain LIVE is described as “A Prairie Home Companion”, only from the piney woods of Maine. The description is very accurate.
Between the diverse and really stunning musical performances, the SMAC troupe manages to come up with some pretty bizarre skits — but they are easily on a par with Mr. Keillor. When the snow is up over the windows in March (and this is after it has melted down a foot or so) you can’t really blame anyone for going just a little crazy - but in a good way.
And so what this winter of endless snow gives us is a 7 minute barrage of puns involving the names of towns in Maine punctuated by whistles, kazoos, and horns injected into a potboiler romance story. You had to be there.
