Holabird AdvocateProviding all the news we see fit to print since 2002!Saturday, January 25, 2003 VOL. II Issue 1N AGNES HAHN: HOME AT LAST After 2 fun filled weeks in Hawaii Agnes Hahn is now resting comfortably at home. She was greeted by a snow storm that let her now vacation time is over and she's in South Dakota now. She also found out that her grandson, Tracy Lennick, broke his arm. We at the Holabird Advocate assume this happened at the wrestling match today and wish him a speedy recovery. MUSIC REVUE by Jerry Hinkle I was up late last night watching the Late Late Show on CBS. Usually I go to bed after the "In the News" segment, but last night he featured a band called the Wondermints, a musical group that I've actually heard of. They played at my cousin Susan's wedding reception (OOPS, I mean "after party"). That was 6 and a half years ago. I know precious little about these fellows, but what I do know is that they are releasing a new album (I assume they've released other albums). It is called "Mind if we Make Love to You". The title seemed racy to me, but the one song I heard from it was quite nice. These guys don't shout, cuss, break their instraments, or urinate on the audience. Of course, nobody's ever heard of them except for the small circle that they travel in. I hope that they do make it big. If not with this album then the next one. To me they seem like a good, solid adult contemporary musical group. Yes, in this day and age that's the kiss of death, but I prefer the Wondermints over the pre-packaged "boy bands" that currently pollute the radio waves. Will the Wondermints get airplay? I don't know, but I'll sure do what I can to make it happen. I hope this helps. The Los Angeles Times has given the album a good revue and that couldn't hurt. I don't know where to get a copy of the album. If anyone among the Readers can get a copy to me, I'd be very greatful. In the near future, you can get more information when the Wondermints website is running. The Address is: www.wondermints.com/.
