18 Mar 09 - 05:53 PM (#2592116) Subject: RE: Some friends of mine (Jayto) From: Jayto I am glad you liked them. Next month I think they are going to be on NPR broadcast in the US. Col.JD tours Europe alot with his other band The Legendary Shack Shakers. I will post when they are going to be on NPR so if anyone wants to try to catch them they will know when. JD also writes some great songs that they are performing and will be performing with the Dirt Daubers. The band consists of Col. JD Wilkes (a Kentucky Colonel not a military Colonel) , his wife Jessica Wilkes and "Slow" Lane Hendrickson. They are a great band and a great bunch of people with a very profound respect and love for folk and old time music. They are just starting up but are already doing great. I am not a member (unfortunately) but they asked me down last night to play with them. It was a great gig and everyone (Crowd and all) had a blast. If they are anywhere around your area I strongly urge you to go and see them it would be well worth your trip. thanks JT |

18 Mar 09 - 06:05 PM (#2592125) Subject: RE: Some friends of mine (Jayto) From: Jayto A Kentucky Colonel is an award the Governor of Kentucky gives out to people that represent the state in a good way. It is actually the Honorable Order of Kentucky Colonels. I am a Colonel so is John Prine, even non residents Elvis was a Colonel. I got to give John Prine his award when they made him a Colonel. Col. Sanders from Ky fried Chicken was one as well lol. |

Daubers rock...keep em comin' JT. and btw, Colonel sounds better than it reads, the way it's spelled (where's the R ?) reminds me of Colon L.Oscopee who was a cousin, twice-removed, of Private Parts.... but that's another story... |
19 Mar 09 - 05:44 PM (#2592895) Subject: RE: Dirt Daubers: Some friends of mine on NPR (Jayto) From: GUEST I know man the spelling has always got ma with it. It looks too close to Kentucky Colonic for comfort (yes there is a pun in there somewhere). There used to be a popcorn sold around here Kentucky Kernel. I will post more when I get it. cya JT |
