Adair's - Thursday Night!
SaraHamilton.com
turned down a chance to go to The Cavern Club because he had never
heard of the band.
"The band" in question was, of course, The Beatles. They went on to
have a bit of success in the music business; enough success that the
guy who didn't want to go see them play because he had never heard of
them is still kicking himself black-and-blue 40 years later.
So when you're trying to decide whether or not you want to drag
yourself out to see some unknown play at (your local venue), just
remind yourself that every musician was once an unknown, and that every
musician who sells out arenas for hundreds of dollars per ticket once
played somewhere for under ten bucks. And someone who paid hundreds of
dollars to sit in the last row of an arena once turned down the chance
to sit on the first row of a small venue for next to nothing. Don't be
this person! (from http://www.sundilla.org/)
In other words, support local live music!
Adair's Saloon is a fine place to do that, and there's no better time
than tomorrow night when Sara and the band take the stage around 9:30.
If you've never treated yourself to this honky-tonk slice of Texas
heaven, here's what the Dallas Observer has to say about it:
"Forget them fancy import beers, son. Tonight, you're drinkin' a Lone
Star. Want a little history? It's all over these walls. That messy
graffiti, been here long's I can recall. Back in the day, we'd write
our college emblems up on these walls. Heck, Lois Adair over there gave
us the Marks-a-lots to use. She's a fine one, Lois, been runnin' this
place for 40 years now. 'Course, they moved since it opened in 1963,
and now it's famous, seein' as how Don Henley used Adair's to shoot
part of that video about JFK dyin', and Pat Green shot that other
video, and hell, I can't tell ya the scores of musicians done recorded
themselves at Adair's. See, son, Dallas ain't all about Uptown and
fancy cars and real estate. Sometimes, it's about good times with real
down-home folk, music that feels like home, a little Patsy Cline on the
jukebox. Just about any night is a good night at Adair's, son. Now pass
me a bottle of that old skull popper. Daddy's gotta dance."
And they didn't even mention the cheeseburgers!!

Big thanks to all those that came out for the shows over Texas-OU
Weekend. Jennifer Statum was the winner of our drawing, and she joined
us in the 99.5 The Wolf studio for the Front Porch Show on Sunday. That
was a lot of fun. Sara and Miles played three songs live and Justin
gave "Lord Help My Soul" a spin.
Stephen Arnold, Whitney Pugh and Steve Reynolds were the winners of our
on-air giveaway and will be receiving their CDs shortly.
And now, for the shows...
