Punxsutawney Phil emerged from his lair on top of Gobbler's Knob in the tiny town 65 miles northeast of Pittsburgh at 7:25 a.m. Tuesday, 2/2/21, and saw his shadow. The furry prognosticator told his top hat handlers called the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club's Inner Circle that we should expect six more weeks of winter! Normally, there would be a crowd of 1,000s gathered in Punxsutawney to celebrate, but the coronavirus COVID-19 forced the festivities to go virtual.

Arlo Guthrie's 'Alice's Restaurant Massacree' is a Thanksgiving tradition! This song had close ties to Thanksgiving because on this day in 1965, Arlo tells of a tale when he was arrested for illegally dumping Alice's garbage where he shouldn't have since the local dump wasn't open on the holiday.
"Alice's Restaurant Massacree" is a musical monologue that is over 18 minutes long. On Thanksgiving Day, we will be playing the album side at noon and the 50th Anniversary live version... Read More |
