Spring 2003

After six years with no major CD release I finally put out a new one, Take Me to Your Library, in February 2003. I did a lot of travelling in April and May to promote the new release. It was fun and exhausting! All of these photos were sent in by my hosts or fans who attended the shows. Thanks so much everybody for sharing them!!! - Monty

Here I am at a festival in downtown Sulphur, OK. Ruby Sue is parked right behind me. This is just before the show. As I sang the first few words of the first song, it began to rain...

The festival organizers were great. They helped grab my equipment and move it under the drive- through at a nearby bank. In no time I was set up to start again. Of course it had quit raining by then...

I had a pretty good-sized group at first. People drifted out, as they will at a festival, but since I was tucked away under the bank awning, very few drifted in. Here are the die-hards who stayed for the whole show!

Here are Kiki and Chanoa, after the show. Their mom is the one who took these photos and sent them to share.

Thanks!!

This is the obligitory shot of me performing "Grandma's House Tonight" - there's one on every page of this scrapbook, I think. This is also at Longbranch Elementary.

This is a posed shot, before the show at family day at the Price Tower in Bartlesville, OK. I sang on the sidewalk outside the building for a really fun audience, enjoying hot dogs, ice cream, and wacky witty way-out songs. Photo by Elaine Engelbert Bristol.

Here is my Evalyn Rose, halfway through a hot dog at Price Tower. Isn't this a fantastic shot? Thanks to Elaine for the great photos! Photo by Elaine Englebert Bristol.

This is at the Oklahoma Arts Association conference at Redlands Community College in El Reno. Am I singing to an empty theater? No, the other side was filled with adults from various arts councils. I wish you could them doing all the silly stuff!

Here I am serving on a conference panel. "One of these things is not like the others..."

Here I am at Morrison Elementary School. Many thanks to Tiers Wisely for this photo and the next one.

Another shot from the Morrison show. The kids sat in a semi-circle around me, which is fun because I can get close to everyone!
