Wave Wave Sorry to say gang, we are out on this one.  Kim (Jo) will be only two days removed from her last chemo treatmennt so she will be feeling pretty puny. The goal is to completly healthy for our arrival @ TBF on June 12th. I would be shirking my responsibility though if I did not report..................

19 days to Cornmeal in Des Moines

and

118 days till we arrive in Telluride!

We're sorry not to see you in a few weeks, but I am with swander on this one -- Such great news to hear "LAST" treatment. Lots of love to you two. I guarantee we will make up for it in T-ride!

On another note, we just heard from a local brewery that they will be bottleing two of our favorite beers again asoon - Blonde Fatale and their Hefe! Brewery is called Peae Tree - We'll bring some for the whole heartland gang in celebration of life and BLUEGRASS!!!!!

To follow up about tix to this show - they are on sale now through www.midwestix.com for $12. They are $15 at the door, so one might think that you should get your ticket now! However, when you proceed to checkout and buy your tix, there is fee of $4.30 some cents.

I don't think the show will sell out, but to be safe, I am going to make sure I am there a bit early to judge the crowd.

Now that UJ and Kim are out, who does that leave for the Raccoon River Brewin Co. Meet & Greet?

 Grrr Band   Grrr Concert

CORNMEAL BREAK is sounding better with every scoop of this damn shovel.  Thinking I'll just wait to buy tickets when we get there.  Not sure yet who's coming along.  First thing we do when we pull into town.  Cheers

I think it will. Whenever Cornmeal comes through they tend to sell out. I don't think they have played People's before, it is bigger than Vaudeville Mews. But I still think the show could sell out, but not until the night of the show. So jealous of you guys, worst time ever for our annual trip to see Umphreys McGee at first ave. Going to be kicking myself until Telluride, but I hope this helps yOu out.

Cornmeal added 2 more days in Iowa. April 28th and 30th. 28th in cedar falls, 30th in Iowa City. Again terrible timing... I'll be in California visiting my friend Pat. But I hope everyone else has a blast!!! I just hope they come back in the summer and play Simon Estes... If it doesn't flood of course

They'll be here...and it WILL flood.  Wouldn't be summer in Des Moines if Simon Estes wasn't flooded.
