now a word from our sponsors

I know famous people:

My cousin Venus VanHorn and her band The Cass County Lamentors will be performing on August 27th from 2-4pm at Tiblow Days in Bonner Springs. Come out and hear Venus croon your favorite, old-timey country music favorites. Bring tissue cause baby, you're gonna cry in your beer. Admission is free.

Old, old, old friend and classmate Mark Pender and his band will be performing on Sept 10th at Jazz at the Corners in Grandview starting at 8:45pm. Mark's a fantastic jazz/funk trumpet player and he's bringing his band all the way from NYC to play in our old hometown. Admission is also free. Can't beat that.
