Sadies, Sadies, Sadies!

September 8th, 2008

Folks tuning into the Hayride tomorrow morning at 10am, should expect a plethora of tunes from the Sadies. That’s because they will be bringing their psych dosed twang thang to the Capital District on Sat. the 13th down at Valentines. We will also play a a couple from the Felice Brothers who will be at the Linda on Thursday the 11th, along with brand new music from Kasey Chambers and the Duhks. If there ever was a reason to hop aboard the Hayride, this show might just be it!

Hayride returns on Sept. 8th

August 30th, 2008

Monday Night Football isn’t the only thing coming back on Sept. 8th. The Adirondack Hayride returns from its summer vacation in it’s usual time-slot 10am-12 Noon. The playlist page has been recently updated as well and we hope to have the Podcast Corral straightened out real soon as well. Enjoy what’s left of summer and look for us real soon!

30 Years Ain’t Enough…

August 30th, 2008

to quench the Reducers’ desire to share their joy of just wanting to ROCK! The Reducer’s provide the Hayride’s closing theme each week, an instrumental called Spaghetti Western #6, which can be found on the retrospective collection Redux. The new CD, Guitar Bass & Drums is available in numerous locations online, including iTunes & Amazon. You can also purchase all their CD’s at their label site Rave On Records. We hope to get a Capital Area appearance for the Reducers set up in the not too distant future!   

Imus Ranch Record

August 14th, 2008

We used to be huge fans of Imus in the Morning, but lost track and faith after he was kicked off the air last year. He’s been talking about this CD for what seems like an eternity, but apparently it is finally seeing the light of day. If we can score a copy, we might even spin of few of these tunes.  All proceeds benefit the Imus Ranch for Children with Cancer, a worthy endeavor regardless of how you feel about ole Donald.

Jimmie Dale Gilmore visits Caffe Lena

July 24th, 2008

Reading about Jimmie Dale Gilmore’s appearance this coming Sunday, July 27th AFTER the program last Monday reminded us yet again, that with a bit more show prep, I might actually be more on the ball and let the listeners know in advance of these special events. Oh well, we are making amends by mentioning it here. So know you know, that master Texas singer-songwriter Jimmie Dale Gilmore and special guest Jenny Scheinman will be appearing at the venerable Caffe Lena Sunday nite. Tix are likely scarce if not long gone already though. 

No Hayride this Monday 7/28

July 24th, 2008

Due to a medical commitment (not the loony bin variety though), the program stays in the barn this coming week. We will return on August 4th for the full three hours.

July 15th, 2008

The Sadies are coming, the Sadies are coming!

July 9th, 2008

We were very excited to get word that another Hayride favorite will be coming to the Capital District later this summer. Canada’s own twang guitar gods the Sadies will be hitting Valentine’s on Saturday Sept. 13th. You can expect to hear a lot about this show on the program, and be prepared to be cajoled and even bothered about whether you plan to attend. Our guy Howe has gone above and beyond to bring us these kinds of bands to our backyard, and too often the support is just not there! So you’ve been warned!
