Grain Elevator Presents: November 17th, 2009
The working thesis for tonight is ... okay, we're not that far along in the paper yet. On the Grain Elevator Ron Miller is back in full voice and humor, with a few jokes sprinkled amongst some great americana, bluegrass, country-western and old time music. This show marks the last night of "Crops Of Minnesota" trivia for the fall season, so listen as Ron gives out the clues to lead you to this mysterious item... Joe Peterson picks out a polka and later prepares us for a special Turkey Day cooking and advice segment next week, Burl Ives is the 7 o'clock feature artist, and even a track by Cookie Monster in the second hour. (seriously!)
