Betty Dylan On the Road Again: Return to the Northeast Tour
To those who of you have let us crash in your warm beds, fed us family meals and bought extra CDs even though you didn't really need them, thanks for supporting us fools trying to make music without corporate sponsorship (unless you know a corporate sponsor who will give us $$$) :}}
To those of you who have kicked us off the stage, banned us from your clubs, and even the booking guy from Brooklyn who said we "weren't country enough for the Rodeo Bar" (whatever that means)...we forgive you...
We're back out on the road, so we really appreciate extra love our friends have shown us, and we want to give it back twofold. We'd love to play some house concerts. And if you like grassroots stuff, we're starting a Betty Dylan street team, at least until someone suggests a better name... Please feel free to write us if you'd like to host a house party or if you'd like to help us with posters and fliers.
Our upcoming Northeast dates are listed below. More dates might still be added, so keep an eye on our web site. Come up and say hello, and we'll give you a little red token so you can get into the backstage party when we get famous.

Caffe Lena is proud to offer the best in acoustic music. The feeling is mutual from the artist's who play at Caffe Lena. Well-loved national artists like Dave Van Ronk and Odetta play yearly at the caffe because of what the caffe means to them. Caffe Lena is alcohol and smoke free.
