This show was a DELAYED BROADCAST
The Original Performance Date was 2015-09-04

This week: we're rolling right off our recent America The Beautiful Tour and rolling right up to the Minnesota State Fair Grandstand for a Friday night show recorded for broadcast the next evening. We'll have bluegrass on a stick from the Steep Canyon Rangers, Jearlyn and Jevetta Steele with soul and gospel even more powerful than anything you could find on Machinery Hill, and Christine DiGiallonardo and the host will sing a few duets for a late-summer night. Plus, our Royal Academy of Radio Actors, Tim Russell, Sue Scott, and Fred Newman take a break from admiring the seed art exhibits to deliver a little radio drama; pianist and music director Rich Dworsky and His Horticulture Orchestra (Jonathan Dresel, Larry Kohut, Richard Kriehn, and Chris Siebold, and our blue-ribbon brass section, Kenni Holmen, Michael B. Nelson, and Steve Strand); and an update on all the summer News from Lake Wobegon. Get in the spirit with a bucket of fresh french fries or freshly baked chocolate chip cookies and we'll see you at the Fair Friday night, and on the radio on Saturday!
