Sourdough Slim
Saturday, June 25, 2005
the last of the vaudeville cowboys
Door 7:30pm, Music 8:00pm | Purchase advance tickets: $17.50

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!
