Howdy,
It's late in getting to P2, but here's last week's playlist for The
Fringe.
I will note that Tennessee Saturday Night and the Fringe did not air on
March 27. I took the night off to catch Fred Eaglesmith live in
Knoxville. What a show. I'm looking forward to this Wednesday's show at
the Tennessee Theater as well-- Merle Haggard and Kelly Willis.
At any rate, here's last week's show (and note the special theme picked
for Episode #29 [tonight's] show...)
Artists making Fringe debuts were Big Head Todd and the Monsters, Roy
Book Binder, Tommy Collins, James Intveld, Freedy Johnston, Lambchop,
Kate Anna McGarrigle, Jim Mills, The Old Joe Clarks, Darrell Scott,
The Squirrel Nut Zippers, Pops Staples, and The Sundowners.

And that, my friends, concludes that particular episode of The Fringe.
Next week (tonight actually) has a special theme: Fringe 1K.
I've been saving all my playlists in a database program and discovered
that Fringe episode #29 will contain the 1000th song played on the show
since it debuted on WDVX in August, 1998.
So, I'm tying that happy little coincidence in with the upcoming
kick-off of the 1999 Spring Fund Drive. There will be some special
prize give-aways and premiums tied-in with the 1000th song. Along the
way in Episode #29, I'll review some of the artists/album featured in
the first quarter of 1999 (not a best of the year necessarily, but a
review of what I've been featuring to date.)
Episode #30 (April 17) will be a shorter version than usual because of
the live broadcast from Market Square. Look for a live concert version
of The Fringe to come in May during the WDVX Campout and Jam. Special
Fringe guests are being lined up for this live concert and campout next
to the WDVX trailer.
In the meantime
