COME HEAR THE MOUNTAIN FOLK REUNION BAND



WHEN? This Saturday


WHAT TIME? Six p.m.


WHERE? Southland Books in Maryville.


AND THAT IS WHERE? In the old T.C. Drake Building


WHICH IS WHERE? Coming from Knoxville go left past the Hilton into Alcoa. At the first major intersection past
Kroger turn left on Broadway and less than a block on your left is Southland BOOKS! FREE PARKING in front and beside the store.

Southland Books has been a jewel in good old Blount County’s crown for years and now they have moved into a building big enough for all their books, records, stain glass shop, gourmet coffee area and stage for live concerts.

The music area in Southland Books is reminiscent of some of the finer listening rooms in Nashville. You are almost on stage and if you get there early you can nail a coveted place on one of the couches!

This is your chance to see the Mountain Folk Reunion band so close you can smell their Jade East and Old Spice! Come on it is free…fun…and in a heck of a cool bookstore! See you THIS Saturday at 6 p.m.

OK, the name of our band is The Mountain Folk Reunion...due to the fact that they said Revival on the poster there is no doubt in my mind it will be worth millions on E bay as soon as we hit the BIG TIME!

COME out for the day and hear us P L A Y!!!

If you are there around 3 you should get both a good spot and catch a full hour of US!!!!

More info to follow!

Mad Dawgs and ENGLISH MEN! A NUTJOB in England says the kids are scared by the warming of MOTHER Earth!

Friends the earth is getting warmer....it does this every few hundred years and then it COOLS!

I GUESS THIS DEER DIDN'T SEE THE FOOL'S MOVIE!




GOT a note from a bud taking a look back 100 years and ya know I found it more than worth inclusion here. Do you agree with the research?






THE YEAR 1907

This will boggle your mind, I know it did mine!
The year is 1907.
One hundred years ago.
What a difference a century makes!
Here are some of the U.S. Statistics for the Year 1907 :
************************************

The average life expectancy in the U.S. Was 470 years old.

Only 14 percent of the homes in the U.S. Had a bathtub,and man the stink would knock a buzzard off a gut-wagon.

Only 8 percent of the homes had a telephone or a Play Station.



There were only 8,000 cars in the U.S., and only 144 miles of paved roads and no hack TV or Radio Traffic Reporters.

The maximum speed limit in most cities was 100 mph.

Alabama, Mississippi, Iowa, and Tennessee were each more
Heavily populated than California until the Yankees freed all the help 41 years earlier and everyone moved west.

With a mere 1.4 million people, California was only the 21st
Most populous state in the Union, but those women who did live there had blond hair and big old fake.....

The tallest structure in the world was the Eiffel Tower! Second tallest was the one built at Six Flags so folks could see Rock City folks looking at them and everyone else in those other 6 states.

The average wage in the U.S. Was 22 Cents per hour and a penny in 07 was worth just a touch under a thousand dollars today.

The average U.S. Worker made between $200 and $400 per year .

A competent accountant could expect to earn $2000 per year, a crooked accountant could earn ten times that amount.


More than 95 percent of all births in the U.S. Took place at HOME and the screams could be heard in the next county .

Ninety percent of all U.S. Doctors had NO COLLEGE EDUCATION! BUT they had a bag full of kick ass dope!



Most women only washed their hair once a month , and used
egg yolks for shampoo,then they immediately cut it and fried it up with a thick slab of pork

Canada passed a law that prohibited poor people from
Entering into their country for any reason other than to enjoy the free health care or to carry a case of Molson back to Detroit.

Five leading causes of death in the U.S. Were:
1. Pneumonia and influenza
2. Tuberculosis
3. Diarrhea, NO SHIT!
4. Heart disease
5. Stroke but only if you stroked it to the EAST


The population of Las Vegas, Nevada, was only 30!!!! not counting the nine thousand hookers who came in for the Consumer Electronics Convention every January

There was no Mother's Day or Father's Day but to honor congress there was a Bastard's Day.

Two out of every 10 U.S. Adults couldn't read or write but by god they could trace!.

Only 6 percent of all Americans had graduated from high school, kind of explains the reading and writing problem DON'T IT!

Marijuana, heroin, and morphine were all available over
The counter at the local corner drugstores. Back then pharmacists
Said, "Heroin clears the complexion, gives buoyancy to the mind,
Regulates the stomach and bowels, and is, in fact, a perfect guardian
Of health." Side affects include a uncontrollable need to buy a Cadillac Esclade, a NINE, some fine rental HO's and a crib near the Old City


There were about 230 reported Murders in the ENTIRE U.S.A. and just over a million in New Orleans that never GOT reported
Now I sent it to you and others all over the United States,
Possibly the world, in a matter of just Seconds !!!!!!!!!

PASS THIS ALONG!!!!!
Just Try to imagine.....
What it may be like .
In another 100 years !!!!!!!

IT STAGGERS THE MIND !!!!!!!!!

IN 1967 Dick Webb (one of the Lenoir City Webbs and son of a Baptist Preacher) and Walker Johnson (a Maryville native) started playing folk songs at the now DEAD Castle Heights Military Acad just east of Nashville, Tennessee. They competed in the famed Nashville East High School Talent contest and lost! Today they are still trying to live down the shame. Bless their hearts.
