Two Articles About The Young Ones, From Lumberton, NC

Hello all-

These articles turned up some time ago, but I'm finally getting the chance to post them. Enclosed are two articles about the Young Ones, from Lumbeton, NC, and their winning the Big WAYS Battle Of The Bands in Charlotte, in November of 1966. The article from the Observer is a bit condescending (I smell a folkie, jazzer or geezer turning up their nose at the youngster's music), but the Robesonian article is a really nice find. My thanks to Maria David of the RetroCLT blog for helping me find these articles. Enjoy,

The Mannish Boys Are Rescheduling This Friday's Show At Smokey Joe's

Hello all-

The Mannish Boys have had to bow out of Friday's show at Smokey Joe's, due to an attack of the stomach flu. Temperance League is stepping in, and will bring the Rock. Sidewalk Bob still opens at 10pm, and Temperance will provide anything but at 11:15pm. Five bucks provides you with all of the merriment and wonder for the evening. I'll also be on hand for any of your questions about the book, or anything else. Look for a list of upcoming Mannish Boys shows in the next post. See you there, stay healthy, and rock on,
