  Here are some of the rumored headliners for the
 event.
 
   Charlie Feathers
   Gene Clark
   Stoney Edwards
   Phil Ochs
   Bryan White
 
[Matt Benz]  KIp: I think we've got Bryan White confirmed: he's
agreed to do the show for a call girl and a chicken dinner, and uh,
$50,000, which is damn chump change for us! Other good news: looks like
Shields  Yarnell will emcee for us, which means 3 nights of Mime! Wow.
Myself, I can't wait for that; anything's better than that mega pain in
the ass Yates: He damn near ran thru my entire month's supply of blow,
and jesus, we're still paying for that escapade of his with the monkey!
Got a call back from Dwight; we talked for awhile. You know that his gal
Bridget and I go way back; yeh, yeh, that whole affair back in 85. Hey,
I was young! We can laugh about it now, and she'll probably make the
trip with D; Hey,- here's some news: he's gonna do all covers for TF!!
Won't that be cool? Everybody likes his cover versions. I'm still
"Negotiating" with Sara Evans; I'll let you know how *that* goes...heh
heh heh. Aww, the life of a music biz mogul!  Hey, did you know that
Ryan Adams and Bryan Adams have the same booking agent? Gad dam, I spent
dam near a half hour just trying to get the secretary to understand who
I was talking about! Anyway, I got Bryan Adams for friday night. He
promised to do "Cuts Like A Knife."

More later,

Matt

Hans asks:
 Why not Elvis? Cheap joke!

I'm glad you asked, Hans.  We almost had the King onboard until one 
of his boys told him about Matt's, um, "relationship" with 
Ann-Margret.  We (well, everyone except Matt, of course) met with him 
in his suite atop Ceasar's Palace in order to try and convince him it 
was just tabloid rumors, but he nixed the comeback, right then and 
there.  He was furious, what can I say.   He called us a "goddamn 
lyin' and cheatin' bunch of alt.country posers" and said we probably 
voted against Nixon anyway.  I got out of the room just as he started 
hurling his collection of police badges at us like kung-fu death 
stars  Sheesh, what a sore loser!!!

Didn't he die recently?  Or am I thinking of someone else?

Ok, I get it now, it's a joke.  Trying to quit caffeine today and I'm not too

Not sure where you got those dates from Barry, but Twangfest is
indeed Thursday, June 10th thru Sat. June 12. No Sunday show, other than
the one in your head after three nights of hanging with some of these
characters...
