A Prairie Home Companion for May 16, 2015
Description
This week: a rebroadcast featuring two shows from the Fox Theatre in Atlanta, Georgia, one from May 2010 and another from just last season, May 2014. Tune in for some of the finest Southern music out there, including Suzy Bogguss belting out Merle Haggard's "Today I Started Loving You Again," Bryan Sutton putting on a flatpicking clinic with "Hangman's Reel," and The Steep Canyon Rangers showing off their a capella skills on "Can't Sit Down." Plus, Lynn Peterson and Garrison sing a few songs in Norwegian to celebrate Syttende Mai; our acting company - Tim Russell, Sue Scott, and Georgia's own Fred Newman - ramps up the radio drama; and Rich Dworsky and The Guy's All-Star Shoe Band. In Lake Wobegon, the war between the Lutheran Church's Pastor Haugen and his secretary Marlene intensifies.
