Hellcountry/Bourbonaires
I didn't get a chance to thank Stacey Taylor before I headed out last night, but last night's Hellcountry gig was a hoot. I got the impression from her that the attendance was the best they've seen so far. Maybe the recent mentions in the Herald, the Globe, and "Country Standard Time" have had some good effect? We were particularly pleased with the audience reaction. Hellcountry audiences clearly know good music when they hear it. ;-) For those of you in the New York City area, we (the Bourbonaires) will also be playing next Saturday night (3/6/99) at the Rodeo Bar in Manhattan with another local rockabilly act, the Raging Teens. Come on down if you can make it. Thanks again, Miss Stacey. The local scene won't be the same without you. --Jon Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wollaston, Massachusetts

Re: Hellcountry
i just want to publically thank Stacey for helping us pop our touring cheery so comfortably as part of her Hellcountry series at the Kendall. We had a blast. The food was great, the people were great, the one dollar Pabst Blue Ribbon beers were a trip back down highschool memory lane. But seriously, it was real great time and got us off to a great start. Thanks Stacey! Good luck with your move to Nashvilee! Elena Skye
