 Holabird AdvocateProviding all the news we see fit to print since 2002!Wednesday, May 25, 2005 VOL. IV Issue 5Q E.E. Hinkle: Coming Soon on DVD Donna Kennedy is organizing a DVD for the 103rd birthday of her Grandfather, E.E. Hinkle. She is looking for old photos and favorite things from the life of our oldest citizen. Anyone who can add something constructive to the project is asked to do so ASAP. "The Watcher" Gets a Link SD Blog Watch is the best blog in South Dakota that isn't listed in South Dakota 123. The SD Blog Watch is presided over by someone who hides his identity. But all of us here at the Holabird Advocate call him "The Watcher". He has nothing but good things to say about the Holabird Advocate. He even linked us up. We have taken a long time to link him up as well, but better late than never, eh Watcher. He left the scene for a spell, but came back with a few things to say, some of which are not so nice. So if you want to read someone even more brilliant that our own Publisher, go to the Free Links page, which can be accessed at the bottom of the Holabird Advocate Front Page. Unforgettable Afternoon at the Corn Palace This is taken from the June 2005 SDPB Magazine: "More than 3100 Friends of south Dakota Public Broadcasting filled the audience at the Corn Palace on May 7 for a sold out performance of A Prairie Home Companion. The Popular radio show, Hosted by Garrison Keillor, was also heard by 4 million radio listeners world-wide. The Program features former Senator George McGovern and up-and-coming musical duo The Ditty Bops. It was an afternoon no one in the audience will soon forget" A Few More Words About the Ditty Bops by Jerry Hinkle, Holabird Advocate Publisher Just let me say that although I agree with the SDBP Magazine. That said, I wish the Ditty Bops had been mentioned ahead of Senator McGovern. As one who was right there, I will never forget that afternoon. The Ditty Bops are the main reason for that. The Ditty Bops are going to be opening for Tori Amos. I am either too old or too young to now who she is, but I could go to that show and leave early, no problem. Who knows, maybe she's got something worth the listen. Also I understand that The Ditty Bops have been invited to perform at Austin City Limits Fest on September 23. Anyone heading to Austin around then is asked to please get in touch with me. I understand they won't be appearing on the TV show. Not yet anyway.
