This week, we feature a compilation of shows from 2009, featuring Old Crow Medicine Show, Neko Case, and Robin and Linda Williams. Plus, newsman Harry Smith stars in an episode of The Lives of the Cowboys; Guy Noir investigates a plagiarizing author; and in Lake Wobegon, the review of a 100-year-old football game reveals the long-held belief that the ground upon which it was played is cursed. Highlights include Garrison being “Unfriended,” Pat Donohue crooning about having the “Gambling Blues,” Neko Case and the “Middle Cyclone,” a script and a song from Harry Smith, plus “Wagon Wheel” from Old Crow Medicine Show and a Guy Noir script with Heather Masse. Originally broadcast on November 6, 2010. www.prairiehome.org/shows/56631.htmlI am off to a grandchild's birthday party so I may not get to see you all tonight! Have fun.

Old Crow Medicine Show
With a little luck and a whole lot of talent, Old Crow Medicine Show went from playing their slash-and-burn brand of old-time music on the streets of Boone, North Carolina, to bringing down the house at the Grand Ole Opry. Now based in Nashville, these Grammy winners and Grand Ole Opry inductees are bringing audiences to their feet coast to coast and then some.
The band for this broadcast: Critter Fuqua, Kevin Hayes, Morgan Jahnig, Gill Landry, Chance McCoy, Ketch Secor, and Cory Younts.
Robin & Linda Williams
Robin and Linda Williams first appeared on A Prairie Home Companion in 1975, the same year they recorded their first album. In 2023, they self-released their newest recording A Better Day A-Coming to great acclaim. For five decades, these two have charmed listeners worldwide with their robust blend of bluegrass, folk, old-time, and acoustic country. Robin and Linda claim that they make their home in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, but truth be told, they spend the lion’s share of their time on the road. And fans at every stop are glad they do. Their Fine Group: Jim Watson (bass, mandolin); Chris Brashear (fiddle).
Neko Case
On her way to becoming a singer-songwriter, Neko Case worked in a supermarket meat department, unloaded trucks for UPS, and cooked in restaurants. Lucky for her myriad fans, this former art student settled on a life in music. The songs featured on this show were from her album Middle Cyclone, which NPR called “heartbreakingly beautiful and, at times, comical.” Her latest album is a career retrospective titled Wild Creatures.
Harry Smith
Harry Smith joined CBS News in 1986 as a Dallas-based reporter. Since then, he has covered events worldwide — Hurricane Katrina, the 2005 London terrorist attacks, the Gulf War, political conventions — and interviewed newsmakers of every stripe, from U.S. presidents to film stars to sports figures. Since 2011, the veteran newscaster has worked for NBC News, where he covers breaking news and events.

I am pretty sure that we recently heard from OCMS (but they always do "Wagon Wheel" pretty much everywhere and anytime they perform) and Neko Case. I don't recall Harry Smith on this show though.

If he were not on FaceBook and paying attention, GK wouldn't notice or experience "unfriending."

So, the PHC tour will be in West Palm Feb 11. I'm having serious thoughts.

Does that mean you will attend? You won't attend? You are undecided about attendance? February 11 seems a very long way away.

"Moonlight Bay" reminds me of old Mitch Miller shows. Follow the bouncing ball!

I need to double check the Orange Blossom Opry schedule, Riders in the sky are going to be up there around the same time. Too many freakin' little details of daily life going on, can't make the big plans.

Sometimes you have to apply intentionality and commit. It was hard but I had to do that for the APHC cruises - they sold out if you didn't sign up a year in advance.
I see that APHC is doing a show next spring in Spokane but I am definitely not ready to commit to a Spokane trip. Maybe I won't even be in WA any more.

Yes, "intentionality". This afternoon I went through all my meds, which I hadn't done for a while. Just checking up on renewal dates, various potential side effects/interactions, things everyone should do with their meds, but I'd not done in a while. I was all on sort of auto-pilot for the last few months. But things seem to be looking up a bit, in terms daily routine. I'm going to give the yard a whack tomorrow and that should hold it for a good while, so I can start spending yard time on the real clean-up; whacking hedges, reclaiming the corners. We're waiting to see if my wife is going to have to go up to IL to help her sister after breast surgery.

Who is doing this tribute? I didn't think GK was that enthusiastic about Roy Rogers.

I bought one of those weekly medicine boxes, two slots for each day, one in AM and one in PM and I stock it for my husband. That helps him keep things straight.

So that means you can arrend both shows? Perhaps pending a trip to Illinois?

He's only on b.i.d. meds, and even that is just to separate the two different BP meds, which is probably a good idea but not necessarily one that "all doctors believe in." But he fixates on oddball matters and the real problem is that one of his meds has different doses on different days, so close supervision necessary. Good think for those initials behind my name. I guess.

I just checked, the Azalea Storytelling Festival in LaGrange, GA is March 1-3, which will clash with Riders. Riders tickets go on sale this Tuesday. Gonna have to be a little thinking time tomorrow.
