Acoustic Americana Music Guide, Sep 26 through 30
OLD CROW MEDICINE SHOW plays L.A. this Tuesday, the final edition of the long-running GRAND OLE ECHO series is this Sunday, and there’s plenty more waiting for you in the new update. Yep, it’s the Weekend update of the GUIDE, with added events through SEPTEMBER’s end

The editor still can’t use the computer as his recovery continues to progress from eye surgery (but he does supply quotes like the one above). This update is made possible by the combined efforts of many, in many places. We have formatted everything the editor had in the Guide’s database, and combined all of it. We hope to post October’s events soon.

The editor thanks everyone for the cards and letters, and for whatever well-wishes await in the mountain of emails that he can’t yet read. A few at a time, we are starting to read them to him (there are over 2,700 there, waiting!)

Yes, it’s true –
There are more ACOUSTIC AMERICANA / ACOUSTIC RENAISSANCE music performances EVERY week in the Los Angeles area than the COMBINED TOTAL of ALL OTHER KINDS OF MUSIC!
