Jeri and Rog Peek,

Thanks for covering for me. Jeri, I hope you can make it back to the Getaway sometime in the future. I missed your presence.

Guest, read the thread to see if you can find the link to Tom's website. The lyrics and an MP3 are there.

Roger in Baltimore, where can I find Paxton's "I'm Changing My Name to Fannie Mae"?

Those who bought Guide Cats For the Blind Volume 2, The Missing Persians File, will already know how approachable Tom is.

When we asked him to take part, we received, within three weeks, the recording of Les Barker's parody "Will the Turtle Be Unbroken" by Tom Paxton and the Smokey Mountain Girls.

It's not likely to be difficult to book him, if he's within reaching distance at the right time for the festival.

Tom has a category of songs called short shelf life songs.
John McCutcheon credits him with naming that category of
songs dealing with current events and politics. He is such
a special song writer and singer....always a joy and many
of his songs are in my repertoire especially Ramblin' Boy
and Can't Help But Wonder Where I'm Bound.

Wesley-

Thanks for the link to the Sarah Palin download; I was unable to find it on the website on my own.

"I've got a bridge to nowhere I can sell you!"

Cheerily,

By all means, let Tom know you're interested. Two of the events we've seen him at in the last few years were festivals of no great size at all. I would drive a couple of hours to see him anytime at the drop of a hat.

One of the greatest singer-songwriters ever born.As previously mentioned, he is a gracious, sensitive friendly person.If he ever could be persuaded to come to the festival it would be an immense attraction.I have seen him perform live many times but I would never pass up a reasonable chance to see him again.

Tom is carrying the banner for the great song writing satirists:
Tom Lehrer and Yip Harburg.

He's the greatest!

Kendall,

Did you listen to "I'm Changing My Name to Fannie Mae?" It's our chance to get in on the seven billion dollars. Thanks for the tip!

Just saw him in Ann Arbor, Mich., where he sang those new songs. Great stuff, great concert.

Check out his web site. I don't know how to send his e mail, so just bring up his web site. His song about Sarah Palin is worth the trip!
He also gives his tour schedule for here and for Scotland in February.
