FRESH MEAT
...Here's a little tidbit to tuck away... John Prine and Mac Wiseman have been hanging out at the Butcher Shop together. John has been a fan of Mac's for a long long time and as they cut and picked at the meaty songs they always loved, they laid down and album full of tracks! Delivery date will hopefully be in early 2007 to warm your hearts and chase away the winter chill!

********************************************************************
STEVE GOODMAN & DAN REEDER & OH BOY RECORDS
Two new releases are available at John's OH BOY company. Dan Reeder's sophomore record "Sweetheart" and "Steve Goodman: Live at the Earl of Old Town" were released Sept 12, 2006. Available at all major online entities and at fine retailers nationwide. Click Oh Boy's new online store here to purchase! Both albums have received a lot of attention from prominent media outlets nationwide. NPR's Morning Edition aired an interview with Dan discussing the new record! Listen here

************************************************
TOM "Crusher" REYNOLDS BENEFIT
Crusher is possibly one of the biggest Prine fans around. He was there at the beginning of Prine's rise to fame and has been to about 80 of his concerts over 35 years. Crusher has met a whole lot of Prine fans all over the country in person or by mail and has turned on more folks to Prine's music than he can remember. In 1999 he hosted "Crushfest" http://www.geocities.com/johnprine1946/Crushfest/ complete with 3 Prine concerts in WI, camping, tour of Lake Marie and a bus trip to try to remember. Crusher is probably one of the nicest people you will meet on or off line and that is why I wanted to pass this along.
Doc Jock's Cycle Parts Shop and SFB Bike Club in Burlington, WI is throwing a benefit for
Tom "Crusher" Reynolds to help defray the massive medical costs he's incurred for past and upcoming operations
on August 19, 2006 from 12 noon until ??
at Chris's USA, 724 Milwaukee Ave, Burlington, WI 53105

Tickets are $10 at the door and Music will be provided by the Twin Rivers Band.

If you are unable to attend but would like to help this Phabulous Phellow Prine Shriner out, please contact me by using the "email" link in the Prine Shrine
http://www.jpshrine.org - thanks!

********************************************************
JASON WILBER, http://www.jasonwilber.com
You know him as "John Prine's guitar player", that young studly muffin to the right of John on stage - the one with the magical flying fingers on lead guitar etc.

Whoooweeeeeee - Jason's newest CD "Lazy Afternoon" is out and is probably his best album yet. He's written 9 out of the 10 songs on this and they're all winners. Humorous, thought provoking and a real treat for a Lazy (or even Busy) Afternoon. Please go check out his site, blogs and listen to the clips... check out his solo dates and try to get to the show. I don't mean to sound so pushy, but I'm playing his CD right now and it is just down-right GREAT - smooth - and tasty ear candy - run, don't walk to - http://www.jasonwilber.com - I kid you not!

**********************************
Fingers are cramping up...brain is mushing - I'll send another ramble soon as I have an urge to ramble on about Dan Reeder - what a gem - he's got a new album coming out - He's a one man band that I have yet to hear anyone say a negative word about when it comes to raw talent and ingenuity! I hope 'Everything is Cool' and Every one is 'Fair & Square' All the BestReeda Bureshwebmistress of the Prine Shrine http://www.jpshrine.org
