Over the Rainbow
Showdate March 4, 2001

" Marlene's show "


I dedicated this week's show to my friend Marlene's upcoming birthday, and I played all songs that she wanted to hear. I also gave away two free tickets to the SMU production of Arthur Miller's The Crucible, which is playing March 7 - 10 [call 496-8265 for info.]. Tickets can be bought at the door, and the show starts at 8pm each night.

First, though, I played: " Over the rainbow " performed by Judy Garland, from The Wizard of Oz

" I still suits me " performed by Paul Robeson, from Showboat, which was requested last week
