Welcome to The Kennedys' E-Newsletter for September 2002!

IN THIS ISSUE:
1) Kennedys touring schedule
2) Get It Right on the radio
3) Mercantile

Hi, everyone! Summer is officially over, but our fall coffeehouse tour has 
just begun. We had a blast in August, playing some of the last few festivals 
of the year, including Bethlehem Musikfest and the Philadelphia Folk Fest. We 
were honored to back up Tracy Grammer on her main stage Philly Folk Fest 
performance, and we were in awe, once again, of her poise, composure, and 
unswerving masterful musicianship, in the wake of losing her life and music 
partner, Dave Carter in July. For those of you who are not yet familiar with 
the music of Dave Carter and Tracy Grammer, we recommend all three of their 
CDs. They will change your life. <A HREF="http://daveandtracy.globalhosting.com/index.php">
