Which beats the other end of US50, rolling through central Maryland from Washington to Ocean City, through Annapolis (home of me), Queenstown (home of an outlet mall), Easton, Cambridge, and Salisbury (home of Frank Perdue).

The club was a sort-of typical Wisconson bar, complete with assortedmoose and deer heads behind the stage (the band couldn't resist commenting of course). Outside, there was a pretty nice beach volleyball court too. Too bad we didn't ahve time to play. Unfortunately, I do not have time for a full review, but here's the setlist from last night in Middleton, WI ( maybe a bit out of order)... (this was an opening act only, for the Nields).

Get in the Car Love Potion Medley Encore: Drinking Song Afterwards, the Nields put on an most excellent show! They actually played to a smaller crowd than Moxy, which was a bit odd, but it left more room to breathe/dance/etc so that was nice. jordan - -- If I were you I'd dance naked in the middle of the street just to embarrass you. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 10 Oct 1998 20:35:15 GMT From: cos@wbrs.org (Ofer Inbar) Subject: Where is Clinton? wbsmiles@aol.com (Wbsmiles) writes: > >Tickets for the December 4th show at the Kirkland Arts Center in Clinton, NY > >are avaible NOW.

Clinton is both a town and a township (the town located inside the township) in the general vicinity of Utica, NY, almost close enough to be called of suburb of Utica if only Utica were a little bigger and less boring :-) To get there from DC, I would take I-95 to the NJTP to the Garden State Parkway to I-87 north, aka the New York Thruway. Follow the Thruway all the way to Albany and continue on I-90 west (still the New York Thruway) to Utica. At the Utica exit, follow signs for 5/8/12 south & west, which should take you to "the arterial". Take the arterial past Utica until it stops being a divided highway, and you get to a really weird intersection, like the kind you find in Boston :) Stay in the left lane on the arterial, and when you reach the weird intersection get on route 12B, which will take you right into Clinton town center, a small park with storefront-lined roads on either side. Clinton's not a one-light town, but it is pretty small. Smaller than Northampton. Almost everything of interest is right around the town center. FDC sez: > KAC is right in the center of village of Clinton, about 9 miles > southwest of Utica on Route 12B. The section of Route 12B which passes > on the east side of the village green is called East Park Row and the > venue is between nos. 9 and 10 on East Park Row. Look for the church > that has a tall steeple. So, just follow my directions, and when you reach Clinton Village, look for the Church. I've never driven directly from DC to Utica, but I estimate 8 hours. 9 if you don't speed, maybe worse if it's snowing.
