If they had Slim Cessna’s Auto Club (out of Denver) on its list you couldn’t keep me away.
It sounds really good, but I won’t be able to attend this year!
;-(
Stanley…..one of the most beautiful places in Idaho! Thanks for the link!
Thank you, Nicole, for sending this press release to us.
You know you are getting known as a media source in the community when people start sending you their press releases.
And with our visits now approaching 1,000 visitors a day (almost 30,000 a month!) it’s a smart thing for people to do. This is turning into a site that will get the word out to a lot of people!
Nemesis, you never fail to surprise me! You are the only one around here I can think of who has heard of Slim Cessna’s Auto Club.
And how about them Munly & the Lee Lewis Harlots?
I LOVE me some Amen Corner!
I only have one album from them, but I love his voice…it’s almost like Lloyd Cole’s.
