Hey there,

Bob confesses...
Can I confess something? A few months ago there was a show at Record
Roundup that was supposed to feature some Bob Wills soundies along 
with a set by the fine Ms Kessler. Tracy and I got there and it turned
out
that McAdams was showing home movies that she had bought at yard 
sales. Ever since that night, I have a tough time rationalizing the idea
of
taking a chance on anything that mentions her. Has her, if you'll
pardon the phrase, record improved?

Well, I did see the Heather McAdams Country Calendar Come to Life thing
at The Hideout and it was fantastic. I'd check to see who is actually
playing music and for how long before heading over to the show.

Later...
CK

 In collaboration with the Hideout, thursdaysomething presents the
best in twanging,
 two-stepping, heart-breaking country music. Throw in a yodeling
contest or perhaps
 a few films by Heather McAdams.

See?  If they'd just called her Reba, then they wouldn't have misspelled her
name.
