    Hello Again,

    A sad and unexpected death in Dennis' family last week (Albion, IL) resulted in cancellations/lost income from 3 gigs in Louisiana over the weekend, and also necessitated the purchase of 2 Amtrak tickets for Morris Ardoin and Rick Lagneaux from Louisiana to C-U to play for us.

    We had already reduced admission for non-sponsors from $5-10 to $3-5 and will honor that, but -- under the circumstances -- any and all additional voluntary contributions at the Dance tomorrow will be greatly appreciated.
