| June 21, 2009, Sunday | Diamond Someday on the Bluegrass Ramble Radio Show Our monthly show: This will be our Brockway Truck show. Brockway trucks were produced for many years down in Cortland, NY. They were special and now, yearly, folks get together in August (the 8th, this year) and show off their Brockway treasures. We'll be playing there again this year. We've learned several truckin' songs (like Diesel on My Tail and Give Me Forty Acres to Turn This Rig Around) especially for the Brockway show and we'll be doing a few of them on Bill's show which airs Sundays, from 9 pm to midnight (EST) over WCNY-FM (91.3) Syracuse, WUNY (89.5) Utica, WJNY (90.9) Watertown NY, and on the web at: www.wcny.org. |
