Corny jokes! Cowboy crooning! Lasso tricks! Ukelele strumming! Yes
folks, all this and much much more can be yours at the only Freight show
this year where you can witness a man in a ten gallon hat yodel, play
accordion, two-step, and twirl a lariat -- all at the same time. Cowboy
songster, sagebrush comic, guitarist, accordionist, and savvy showman
Sourdough Slim, who was raised on a cattle ranch in the Sierra Foothills,
transports us to a whimsical, infectious world where vaudevillian camp and
cowboy lore intermingle, producing grins galore.
Slim has released a
dozen albums, most recently Six-Guns 'n Sage, featuring a
generous helping of the truly astounding yippee-ti-yi style that won him
the 2001 Will Rogers Award for Yodeler of the Year. Multi-instrumentalist
Robert Armstrong, renowned for his steel guitar and musical saw playing
with the Cheap Suit Serenaders, will join the festivities as featured guest.
So what are you waitin fer? Saddle up and hightail it over!
