"I Commenced to Singing"
...
"Guthrie would write some 2,500 songs, two novels, hundreds of
essays and influence several generations of musicians. The
Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service tells his story
with "This Land is Your Land: The Life and Legacy of Woody
Guthrie," which opens May 27 at the National Museum of
American History."

I'm quizzled as to the Woody Guthrie exhibit in DC is it now starting on May 27? At one time it was listed as starting May 14, then Janet found a link saying it was May 27 & then I later saw on another portion of their site for the museum where the date was listed as May 14. So it's quizzling. If anyone knows the correct date, thanks! [img]/ubb/smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Thanks for the info! We appreciate your info around here! [img]/ubb/smilies/smile.gif[/img] I think Janet could easily apply for a job at RSR & do well at it. I bet she could really update Dave on the concert listings etc. [img]/ubb/smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Boy the way the dates are are on this thing May 27- Aug 15 it won't be in DC around the May 15 Baltimore gig or the May 20 Spring Gulch gig in PA or the Sept FARMAID in DC. [img]/ubb/smilies/frown.gif[/img] So we won't be able to plan it around any Arlo gigs & will now have to make a special trip up there just for that. We'll have to go one day just for the day & drive back that nite. [img]/ubb/smilies/frown.gif[/img]

"Though his flat voice hides it, Woody Guthrie effortlessly synthesized and transformed more musical styles than any American artist this side of Louis Armstrong. "

The 50-year-old Springsteen proved he may be a
little paunchier, but he hasn't lost the touch or the
message. He still is a genius at creating a genre all
his own by melding the Woody Guthrie-Bob
Dylan-troubadour message of working-class
heroes, with the rock showmanship that ranges
from Elvis to James Brown.
