Hey, ya'll! Sadly, Thorsby Teatreacle, our faithful scribe, is ill. So the task falls to me, Webb Wilder, balladeer and "mew -jishun," to humbly and inarticulately relate to you the tidings of the upcoming weekend. As his eloquence is an attribute I do not possess, let me cut to the chase: We gon' rock and roll in Illinois and Wisconsin, this weekend!
Before I get too far into this, let me be sure to thank everyone who came to see me and the Beatnecks last weekend at Fitzgerald's Nightclub in the Chicago area. You guys are the best! Thanks! Very much appreciated.
Anyway, this Friday, 7/20/18, we will be in the charming hamlet of Mount Morris, IL, for the Mount Morris Jamboree at the corner of Wesley Avenue and Front Streets. This is a FREE show! Start time is 7pm. Bring your chairs and coolers!
Saturday, 7/21/2018, we return after an absence of too many years to the Crystal Corner Bar (located at 1302 Williamson Street, in Madison, WI). Come see us in Mad-Town! 8pm start. The Beth Kille Band opens. The proceeds of this show will benefit the Friends of the State Street Family. There's even an article in Madison's ISTHMUS about it.

More information like addresses, phone numbers an' all that can be found on our Tour Dates page.
Well, that's pretty much the long and the short of it. Oh, almost forgot: Beatnecks aboard the bus will include: Tom Comet, Bob Williams and Rick Schell. As always, we will have CDs, T Shirts, DVDs, stickers (new ones!), posters and I-don't-know-what-all at the shows and online at WebbWilder.com.
And don't forget to catch "The List," my radio show on wmot.org. It airs 2-4pm Central time on Friday and again at 7-9am Central on Saturday. Listen live online, or at 89.5FM in middle TN.
In the words of Ed Sullivan, they are all "fine, decent youngsters."
Summertime, Summertime, Summertime, Summertime... You get the picture.
Thanks!
WW
