Playlist for October 12, 1999

Still reveling in the festivities of the third annual Torch and Twang Fest, we did a big recap of the highlights of the previous weekend. T&T Fest III proved to be the best yet, with an enthusiastic full house each night and very positive reactions from the performing musicians. We started off with a big set from all the fine artists who had played at T&T Fest III. Thanks again to our sponsors and to all the great music fans who convened in Lansing for the event. Now we can catch our breaths for a few months before we have to start thinking about T&T Fest IV, or T&T Fest 2K, as we're thinking of calling it.
