11 Apr 02 - 12:23 PM (#687948) Subject: Whither Zither (Peter Berryman's column) From: SharonA FYI – thought I'd let you all know, if you don't already, that Peter Berryman (of Lou and Peter Berryman) writes a monthly column for Mad Folk News, the newsletter of Wisconsin's Madison Folk Music Society. The column began in October 1997, and IMO is very well written and extremely informative, helpful and thought-provoking. As one might expect from Peter Berryman, it's often quite humorous as well. The archives of all Whither Zithers (to date) can be found here: http://louandpeter.com/wz.html |

I was drawn to a column called California-ya-hey, that described one of their California tours. I'm one of those former Wisconsinites who goes up to the stage after concerts, to hear news from home.

My brother and sister-in-law lived in Wisconsin for several years, so I've been out to visit and I got the tour.... cheese and cows and Dells and beer.... A tip for tourists: July is not the best month for visiting a pig farmer (one of my brother's then-parishioners), nor even for driving past his farm! I was very impressed with The House on the Rock, though! By the way, Joe, you were close to the Berrymans's website but you had the names transposed. Any one of these three addresses should get you there: louandpeter.com www.louandpeter.com members.aol.com/berrymanp Sharon |

And Peter's column is one of my main reasons for enjoying the Mad Folks Newsletter whenever it arrives. (Other than looking to see who is playin' at the places I used to frequently pick---Cafe Carpe etc.) All the best to you "mad folks". Art Thieme |

But how about something I've longed wished for, a gizmo that cleans paint brushes? Cleaning up the paint brushes when you're all tired out from painting is a real drag, aina? |

13 Jan 04 - 01:01 PM (#1091946) Subject: RE: Whither Zither (Peter Berryman's column) From: GUEST,earl@earljanack.com Several years ago I was asked to learn and play "The Family Car" at several different actions including "The Parade of Homeless" in Colorado Springs sponsored by the Housing Advocacy Coalitionand most recently the "Walk in my Shoes" fundraiser for the Wyoming Coalition for the homeless. Brett Axel, a poet from N.Y., has asked me for a recording of the song. Is there one out there? Do i need your permission to perform the song. If I remember right it was the Peace and Justice group in Colorado Springs that turned me on to the song. I do a little advocacy work with the WCH and am a singer/songwriter with some of my own original songs. My website has 12 songs "This Machine Kills Fascists" an homage to Woody Guthrie. I'd be honored if someone out there would check it out and tell me what they think here are a couple of links. http://www.earrljanack.com http://www.vcn.com/~wch/win04.htm |
13 Jan 04 - 01:33 PM (#1091981) Subject: RE: Whither Zither (Peter Berryman's column) From: YorkshireYankee Hi Earl, Your best bet would be to ask Lou and Peter. How do you do that? I hear you asking... It's easy -- just visit one of those links above kindly posted by Sharon A. The first page has a couple of @ddresses for each of them. Drop 'em an email, I'm sure they'll be pleased to hear from you -- they are both lovely people. Cheers, YY |
