So, no more of those worn out excuses (’Have to wash my hair’,'Held captive in Spotsy by a bunch of Shining Path rebel insurgent paramilitary-types’, ‘I’ve fallen and I can’t get up’, ‘dingoes ate my car keys’, ‘My flight from Dubrovnik was delayed and I missed my connection at Heathrow’, ‘Sorry, I’ve got to measure my cat’…….

And after that show, we’ll be back at Downtown Fredericksburg’s First Nite extravaganza-celebration-shindig.
We’ll be at the Pickers Supply concert hall, sharing the evening with our pals Laurie Rose Griffith and Peter Mealy. You all better be there, too.

Here’s a couple more album covers that we considered, but the folks in the legal department of StonyMan Int’l had some reservations…

So here’s the deal with the new Stony Man cd.

It’s called “Turn Your Radio On”, and it has ten tunes great tunes on it.

Ten of the best songs in the world.

Ten really ,really , really great songs.

Ten of ‘em.

It was going to have more, but we had a deadline to meet.

You know how it is.

Anyway,it’s gonna be for sale soon at CD Baby. You can get copies there, or you can e-mail us at kentipp@cox.net.
