04 Jul 01 - 01:25 PM (#498383) Subject: Woody Guthrie & Pete Seeger From: Francy I've been working on a birthday program for Woody Guthrie for Saturday July 14, at 4:00PM EST on the Toledo Folk Music Group on Paltalk, with recorded and live music and comments and stories on Woody's life. Also plans for a Pete Seeger tribute are going forward with four people from Mudcat joining me. Anyone else interested E mail me at flnjjones@harborside.com and give me a list of songs you would like to sing. It's first come first served.......(on the choice of songs).... Everyone's welcome to participate..... Thanks Frank of Toledo |

05 Jul 01 - 06:18 PM (#499294) Subject: RE: Woody Guthrie & Pete Seeger From: Suffet Here's an idea whose time has come. Let's make July 14th, Woody Guthrie's Birthday, an UNOFFICIAL national holiday. Let's not bother with acts of Congress or Presidential proclamations. Just take the day off from work. And if anyone asks why why, tell the truth. I'm taking the day off because it's Woody Guthrie's Birthday. Maybe we can even turn this into Folksingers' Day, the way George Washington's Birthday evolved into Presidents' Day. July 14th is also La Fête Nationale de La France (Bastille Day), all the more reason to take it off. Et M. Regenstreif à la Belle Province de Québec, Woody Guthrie's Birthday can be an international holiday. It need not be confined to the USA and France. The whole world can take the day off. So go ahead and tell the boss "Vive l'anniversaire Woody!" --- Steve |
