The show opens with some hot Dixieland from our house band, Mike Lucas and the B-Town Bearcats, and Art Heckman joins them for an updated version of the depression classic, “Brother Can You Spare A Dime” – allowing for inflation, it becomes “Buddy, Got A Buck Forty-Nine?” We take a quick look at all the different Holidays being celebrated, and join the folks in the old General Store, sittin’ around the old potbelly stove swappin’ haiku poems. The Fatted Calf String Band cuts loose with a set of lively old-time tunes, and then host Richard Fish tries his wings as a storyteller, with the tale of his disastrous and miraculous experience on the night of the Senior Prom, back in High School. Next, Jim Krause and Ann Hurley perform some gorgeous original tunes: their cello and guitar duet weaves some truly beautiful music over the airwaves. Writer and storyteller Bill Weaver presents his holiday classic, “Rudolph The Red-Nosed Housecat” to finish out our first hour.

Richard's Senior Prom escapades
Holy Cow! What a tale you had to tell, Richard! Who would have thought your Senior Prom event would end up like that! I certainly knew nothing about it and I am your sister!!! Can't wait to hear about other escapades that haven't been revealed yet!
Enjoyed listening to this radio station via computer. Look forward to hearing more live events.
Happy Thanksgiving to all,
Sue
