got my presale ticket for the Tulsa show!
password is roughtrade
got the great news today, thank you!way to go tom!
we got our second RWH show the other night and he played some different songs than we saw last year. it was more like a fan club meeting than a concert, place was almost sold out and a very adoring crowd, but Ray was funny and ornery as ever. he’s a helluva guitar player, too. go see him! he is a blast to see live!Saw Hayes Carll last night for the second time. Great songwriter with a hot band. Check them out if you get the chance!
okay ladies and germs, just picked up this on a used (looks excellent) Koch 98 remastered cd at the used book store for six bucks!
the second one i found at a used cd shop.nice development. we enjoyed Amy with her band opening for Alejandro Escovedo here a couple of years ago. they initially had technical problems so she launched into her fine version of Dylan’s Mama You Been On My Mind solo acoustic while they got things fixed.
enjoy!>The first pre-sales started this morning. I think Tulsa is one of them

anyone know of any presales going on?
nice to see Los Lobos touring with Young,
should be a super show!Hayes Carll and band played a great set here tonight.
they’re on the road, so catch ’em if ya can!
http://www.hayescarll.com/RWH did a show here in T-town last thursday night. just a drummer (a very good one) and he did quite a few songs, including some from his new cd, Grifter’s Hymnal. it was the first time ive seen him and we enjoyed it very much. i esp liked his ‘messenger’ and ‘drunken poets dream’ which he said he’d cowrote w/ Hayes Carll. RWH is very funny and tells alot of interesting stories about his life, family and travels, very enjoyable, imo. anyway his last song in the set was Choctaw Bingo which is hilarious and the encore was You Gotta Move, maybe to honor the birthday of the Rev Gary Davis, which is today 30 April.
anyway, he’s on the road so check him out if he gets to your neck of the woods!last night’s show was supercalifragilisticexpealodociously great!
if you can get to the ones in LA or NY, don’t ya DARE miss it!article:

here’s another new fan.
he’s on tour, check him out!thanks!
i’m sure it will be great.
btw, Mellencamp’s done alot of great stuff.
my favorites are “Tumblin’ Down”
and his cover of Van M’s Wild Night — spectacular!we went to the Woody Guthrie museum exhibit yesterday afternoon. a couple of guitars, alot of nice pictures and artwork by Woody. it was nice to see some of his original song manuscripts — some hand written, some typed, such as Oklahoma Hills, Pastures of Plenty, California Stars, This land is Your Land (actually named “God Blessed America”)
it was like a tomb in there… so quiet. now and then you could hear Woody singing something, i think it was Planewreck at Los Gatos, like a faint elevator music. there had been a kid’s choir there earlier but we missed that. got a great concert coming up Saturday, though!
also, there was a little scrap of paper w/ Woody’s scribbling on it. turns out, it was apparently lifted by John Mellencamp for the beginning two or three lines of his song “Small Town”. there was a copy of Dylan’s first lp he’d given to Woody. Bob had written out some of the lyrics of Song to Woody on the front of it. a lame letter John Lennon had apparently tossed off to Woody
i’m playing Mermaid avenue now, wishing Bragg and Wilco were gonna be there…
here’s some of it: a few pictures and short video
