May 19, 2007
Coming to you again this week from the glamorous State Theater in Minneapolis, we'll welcome a Texas singer, songwriter, and fearsome fiddler, Carrie Rodriguez with Hans Holzen and Kyle Kegerreis, and Sun Records legend Cowboy Jack Clement. Also with us, heartland holubtsi hero Peter Ostroushko, poet Louis Jenkins, The Guy's All-Star Shoe Band with Andy Stein, The Royal Academy of Radio Acting: Tim Russell, Sue Scott, and Tom Keith, and the News From Lake Wobegon, where there's a whole lot of deep fried walleye left over from the opener. It's all coming up this week on A Prairie Home Companion.
