Don't know if anyone else has posted this, but I thought I'd pass it along. Berkshire House Publishers (the same folks who are publishing Arlo, Alice and Anglicans: The Lives of a New England Church) also sell a cookbook with recipes of famous Berkshire people, including Arlo Guthrie. You can look at the publisher's catalog on line at: http://www.berkshirehouse.com/bestberkshire.html

HELP! I'm quizzled! LOL! I need to find out, is Arlo's Baltimore, MD show with the Symphony? Or is it not with the Symphony?

Last yr I was told it was a Symphony gig. I called them & asked was it a Symphony gig & the lady said she didn't think it was. I asked Arlo & he said he didn't think it was a Symphony gig. Arlo told me that how you can tell if a gig is a Symphony one or not is that if it's a Symphony gig it'll say with the Symphony listed next to the gig on the ARLONET concert page. Well with this gig it doesn't say with the Symphony on the ARLONET concert page. Janets Link she posted here makes me think it could be a Symphony gig. Thus the Quizzlement. LOL! Arlo has told me wrong about stuff before so who knows. LOL!

He told me the Greensboro, NC Gig March 10 was a Symphony gig. We come dressed for that & then he tells me it's not a Symphony gig. So I suspect Arlo has no idea at this point what kind of gig Baltimore is.

Really it doesn't matter to me whether or not it's Symphony. I mean he could stand upside down on his head & sing ALICE for 4 hours & I wouldn't mind. [img]/ubb/smilies/laugh.gif[/img]

Seriously, the reason I need to know whether or not it's a Symphony gig is... See for the Symphony gigs I dress a little more fancier than normal. Not That I dress like Sunday go to meeting stuff or or boring corporate establishment crap at the Symphony gigs or dress like a bum at the regular gigs. But ya know my version of Symphony is well upscale hippie/60's chick ya know bellbottom pants made of dressy material ethnic looking dresses or skirts from India that sort of thingy. I'm pretty hip for an middle aged chick I guess.

Anyway, I need to know whether or not this is a Symphony gig so I'll know how to dress. If it is a Symphony gig then I'll probably wear my purple bellbottom dress pants & my purple velvet Jacket. If it isn't then probably my khaki pants with flared legs like the 60's with a 60's hippie style top.

Anyway, if anyone has the info we're much obliged. Thanks!

Um......

Cheryl, this assumption could be WAY out there, but I'm just guessing: if the Baltimore Symphony is advertising a gig with Arlo, then....

probably....

it's a symphony gig. To be safe, dear: dress for a symphony gig.

OK?

Thanks for the info! I just didn't want to over dress or under dress i ya know what I mean. LOL! [img]/ubb/smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Cheryl -- Guess I was assuming Arlo's Baltimore concert was a symphony gig. I changed my earlier post and left out the symphony part. Like you said, if it doesn't say "with the symphony" on the concert listings page it is probably a regular gig.

Thanks for the info! Hopefully someone who knows for definite what sort of gig it is will post on here. LOL!

"However, there's this commercial I hear on the radio for - I almost hate to
give the free advertising - collegeclub.com that I can't stand. The
commercial is a blatant ripoff of Arlo Guthrie's classic Thanksgiving Day
song Alice's Restaurant. If the commercial was clever, I'd give it some
slack."

I just came across an interview with Willie Nelson on a website & they asked Willie where FarmAid's gonna be this year. Hope it's okay to quote this & not spilling the beans early but we know the gig is going on & is a sure thing & the date! [img]/ubb/smilies/smile.gif[/img] Here's the excerpt:

"niktaw: Where will Farm Aid be this year?

Willie Nelson: The Farm Aid concert this year will be at the Nissan Pavillion in Manassas, VA., just outside of Washington, DC."

Yippee! Arlo doing 2 gigs in VA! Miracles can & do happen! He hasn't been to VA since Nov of 98! Looks like he's repented! [img]/ubb/smilies/smile.gif[/img] 2000 is gonna be a great year! [img]/ubb/smilies/smile.gif[/img]

The office walls are covered with framed photos,
magazine covers and illustrations. Still, Denby notes, it's
only a fraction of the memorabilia that's still in storage.
Some represent Dick's professional life: A

Smothers Brothers' landmark CBS variety show that

and Arlo Guthrie; a publicity still of George Burns and

Review of "Early Dylan" which has a foreword by Arlo.

While doing some unrelated research I came across the following in an acronym dictionary:

ARLO: Acoustics Research Letters Online (Journal of the Acoustical Society of America) also

ARLO: Air Reconnaissance Liaison Officer

The first one seemed apt.

Hmmm? So does the second one, if you consider the "aerial photography"......doesn't it? [img]/ubb/smilies/smile.gif[/img]
