Prelude to Mardi Gras
Tonight: A special set of polkas for our late friend Jim Wark; Next a ticket give away for Galactic; Then I’m seeding your minds with a song I love by various artists, Chere Alice. Meaning I’m dropping it in randomly, so it’ll take root. Simply beautiful; take notice – it’ll make you sway; Finally, throwing in the Chanson de Mardi Gras – the rural tune played and sung on the courirs. Thanks for tuning in!
