Encore Tent Show Radio Tonight – Bill, Willie, and Merle

If you’re within range of one of these stations tonight (Saturday, July 16th) we hope you’ll join Mike as he hosts another edition of Tent Show Radio from Big Top Chautauqua.  Information on streaming the show here.

The musical guests will be Bill Monroe, Willie Nelson, and Merle Haggard, and in this episode’s monologue – delivered from the backstage dressing room with the one lonely little lightbulb burnin’ – Mike discusses his love for tents … unless the tent in question contains a malicious clown who does weird magic tricks involving giant underpants.
