The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo’s Wine Garden was buzzing Tuesday night.
Kudos to different Beast, featuring Buzz contributing photographer Michael Hart on bass, who rocked the Wine Garden under a full moon. Even though special guest Sharon Montgomery was feeling under the weather, her incredible voice left the crowd begging for more.
