   From: Mike Chesman (chesman@preferred.com>

This is to announce that the UPO2 tape has finally been completed.
Information on how to obtain a copy will be posted on Nancinet next week
(Please do not send any requests to me at this time).  In the meantime
you
can get a teaser of what the thing looks like by going to the UPO2 link
at...

	http://pages.preferred.com/~chesman/ngmain.html

I promise to post more information here for folks that just have email
and
don't have web access.  I had promised to make some sort of announcement
before the end of the week and I'm pressed for time at the moment.

Subject: NN: New Dates?
   From: Halesbop@aol.com

Rob declared on Thursday:

Well? What are they? We're all anxious to know.

Since I've resigned that none of these dates will be here in Michigan,
I'm 
considering going down to Cincinnati Friday to see Nanci. But that's
quite a 
drive from Ann Arbor for a 75 minute set. (She's scheduled to appear
from 
10:30-11:45.)  Is anyone else from the southeast Michigan/Toledo area up
for 
it? I'm thinking of taking off work, heading down Friday afternoon and 
returning Saturday am. Please email me if interested.

Here is the website for the Jammin On Main event in Cinci:

HREF="http://www.pepsijamminonmain.com/">http://www.pepsijamminonmain.com/
(/A> 

I don't know whether this show will be with the BMO, or a scaled down
version 
of it, or solo, or what.

Re: Searching for Maura O'Connell

I am not positive, but I don't think Maura O'Connell has an official web
site.

Since I notice you are an AOL subscriber, I thought I would mention that 
Maura does have a message board on AOL.  GO to keyword MUSIC then to
chat & 
messages then to country/folk then to folk/acoustice and follow the 
alphabetical listings of artists to Maura.

While I an at it, all you AOL subscribers - we could use you at the
Nanci 
message board as well which seems to be on life support at the moment.

Subject: NN: Nanci's health
   From: Alirmann@aol.com

(( we just learned from another NNer that Nanci 
cancelled a performance at MerleFest due to illness.  No word on NN yet
as 
to whether this is a passing thing or serious.  Do you have any news? >>

I am the one who informed the list of this and asked for information.  I
was 
concerned because if my memory is correct, didn't Nanci have cancer at
one 
time?  Anyway, no mention of her has been made to the audience but a 
MerleFest staff member was told by Nanci's management that she has a
very 
severe case of the flu.  The festival has been good, although not the
same 
without her.  I was very surprised at Hootie and the Blowfish.  I have
never 
really liked them (except the duet Darius did with Nanci) but they were 
playing bluegrass at the festival and their cover of "Will the Circle be 
Unbroken?" was great!  Still enjoying all the other artists, Doc, Tim
and 
Mollie O'Brien, Tony Rice, Ricky Skaggs, Bela Fleck, Sam Bush, and the
list 
goes on and on.  If anyone has anymore info on Nanci, please let us
know!

   From: toverton@tpoint.net

My fiancee and I are planning to play "Roseville Fair"
from "One Fair Summer's Evening" as the song for the
first dance at our wedding.  She had never heard of
Nanci before I turned her on to Nanci's music.

We both really loved the sentiment of the line "...they
courted dearly, and the courted well... And when the
year was over from the time that he met her, he made
her his at the Roseville Fair..."

PBS' Austin City Limits is featuring Freddy Fender, David Hidalgo,

this evening in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area in a celebration of
Mexican roots. Should be very good.

Say
   A while back there was talk that  Lee was  selling  one of her
mandolins.   Did that ever happen?
  And while I'm at it...... I just hit The Kerville Folk Festival web
Site.
 Three days of REALLY GREAT folk music
  One of my other favorite  Texas Nightengales......  Tish Hinajosa 
will
be performing on Saturday.
  I  use to work with her brother in Austin  (at least Dave said he was
her
brother..... well anyway they both had the same last name
 and Dave said he has like 12 brothers & sisters) .   Anyway Tish has
some
very socially scathing words that she has 
 put to music.   In a way Tish kinda reminds me of Sinead O'Connor
without
the attitude, and  much prettier hair. Tish is really 
 cool and she does some retro country.   Her albums are great, and she
and
Nancy have worked together.

"Culture Swing" is a really teriffic record.  But I really love " Taos
to
Tenessee".    She has some great musicians and production
behind her and there is a real softness that only comes through when
you've
finally gotten a lucrative contract.

Three weeks of REALLY GREAT music isn't it?

And speaking of upcoming Austin performances, is anything exciting
happening
between May 21 and May 24 that we need to know about besides that Nanci
thang with the ASO?

Subject: NN: Great music
   From: John Edward Graveling (kai21@dial.pipex.com>

To all my friends out there, I have been enjoying the holiday weekend 
here in England, today is our Labour Day holiday, and the weather has 
been wonderful. Apart from getting out and about and doing the
obligatory 
gardening (yard work- to those of you across the pond!!!), I've been 
compiling driving tapes in preparation for my two trips to the USA in
the 
coming three months. 

I've gone right back to the late 60's for some rockin' with Humble Pie, 
resurrected my live Grateful Dead albums and gone through the 70's, The 
Allman Brothers and Steely Dan, and 80's, and then into the early 90's. 
With currently 1,997 albums and cd's to choose from I'm not exactly 
starved for choice. My question is, does anybody remember that great 
female duo Kennedy Rose. I have both their cd's. The first "Hai Ku", is
a 
bone fide classic, lovely harmonies, adventurous instrumentation and 
great songs. The follow up "Walk The Line" wasn't quite as strong, but 
still a whole lot better than what hits the streets today. They are of 
course successful Nashville writers having scored many hits, with "Love 
Like This" (Carlene Carter) and "Safe In The Arms Of Love" and "Born To 
Give My Love To You" (Martina McBride) amongst others. They performed 
once in London as the support act on a Sting tour of the UK, so I didn't 
see them.A friend who did went out and bought the cd's, which says it 
all. Immensly talented, and a great loss to the recording industry if 
they do not make any more cd's.

Subject: NN: Fran Breen and Frances Black
   From: Pigini@aol.com

Can anyone tell us who Fran Breen, this magnificent drummer is now playing 
with.  We used to meet up with him when he played with Stocktons Wing
and most recently when he played with the BMO at Glasgow.

Unfortunately we have now lost touch.  Can anyone help please.

On another note we heard Frances black in Aberdeen, UK last week.  She
was accompanied by Declan Sinnott.  They were absolutely fantastic.  She has
such a powerful clear voice.  Were any other NN's there.  She made a good job
of some Nanci songs - On Grafton Street was great.

Fran has been on the road the best part of the last year with Lucinda 
Williams, although he missed the UK leg of her tour, when she reverted 
back to her original drummer, Donald Lindley. Donald died of cancer
early 
in the new year and I assume Fran is back in the drum seat.
