Hello all-

Just a reminder to check out the Carolina Rock & Roll Remembered Facebook page for lots of cool finds, songs and photos of the music and scenes that we covered in our book.

Attention Phil Lee and Mannish Boys fans. Phil and the band are putting together a short post-holiday tour, after Phil and the Bondsmen reunite for their annual show in Durham on December 26th. We've already booked a show in Winston-Salem on December 28th (more info on that coming shortly). We're looking for some cool places throughout the Carolinas that want to host the guys rocking the house. Maybe even your house. Email Phil Lee or the Mannish Boys if you're interested. Hope to see you soon, and see you on the road.
