Hello Junkies!
Fall is in the air, and I couldn't be more pleased. I've been ready for cooler weather for some time. It's nice to breathe in cool, crisp air. Speaking of air, as many of you know, I am a strong supporter of the Smoke Free Environment here in Louisiana, due to the fact that my dad died of lung cancer. I recently had a lung X-ray, and I'm glad to report that the results were clear, and I'd like to keep it that way! So I'm proud to announce the "Breathing Easy Tour 2011"!
(click on the logo for more info) So come out and meet us as we promote equal air for all. We even have some freebies for showing your support...
------------ In last month's newsletter announcing our new website, we asked, "See if you can be the first person to find exciting news on the "About" page, news that hasn't been announced until now." The exciting news is: I'm being inducted into the Louisiana Hall of Fame in 2012! The first person to answer correctly was Terri Kiser. Terri was offered a free download of choice. Congratulations Terri! ------------- Don't forget:  The Ultimate Zydeco Junkie Experience For those of you who want to see our part of the country, experience Zydeco in it's most natural form here in Southern Louisiana, eat our food, and experience our culture, COME AND PASS A GOOD TIME WITH US!You know for a swamp-funky zydeco good time, there ain't no party like a Chubby party, baby!

Don't forget that we are re-designing our newsletters. Each month we will choose a "Zydeco Junkie" of the Month.
In order to be chosen, you must:
1) Create a profile on the message board
2) Introduce yourself and tell a little bit about how you became a Junkie in the "Welcome to the Junkiehood" thread on the message board
....and it would be cool if you uploaded some of your pictures and videos with me and the band, too....
