Historic US80 Hi-Way Sale

Coast to Coast – 3rd Weekend in April
East Texas Tourism Association is proud to announce the 2013 dates for the US Hwy 80 Sale for the third weekend in April & October. The Historic US 80 Hi-Way Sale will begin at 8:00am daily on April 19th, 20th & 21st and on October 18th-20th and should draw crowds from far and wide looking for a bargain.

Organized to promote and increase tourism trade and traffic along historic US 80, the first coast-to-coast, all-weather highway in America, the 2,400 mile route begins in Savannah, Ga., makes its way through East Texas and concludes in San Diego, California. The three-state event will cover a 392 mile route – one of the nation’s longest –from Mesquite, TX through Louisiana to Jackson, Mississippi.
“We intend to keep the name and legacy alive,” said Mary Ramos, “There will be hundreds of sales going on…more than you can shop in a day. This is a great fund-raising opportunity for churches, civic clubs and individuals.”
The event is part of ETTA’s 22nd year effort to draw attention to the byways of its region. Each city along the US 80 route will be responsible for its part in the Hwy 80 Sale.
News of the sale is spreading among antique car, motorcycle, RV clubs and flea market enthusiast. While shoppers will be searching for great deals, cities along the route hope they find the highway’s more permanent treasures, such as bed and breakfasts, motels, restaurants, and historical sites.
For more information on the US 80 Sale and how to advertise, contact East Texas Tourism at info@etta.com.

What if Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso had once met and somehow sensed they were about to change the world through their science and art? The year is 1904 and both men are destined to be the biggest names in their fields in the 20th century and they meet in a bar called the Lapin Agile in Mountmarte, Paris, where they explore the value of genius and talent while interacting with a host of other characters. This wiggly, adult-oriented comedy by Steve Martin is every bit as cerebral and inventively odd as the comedian who wrote it.

Susan Cowsill April 13 at 8pm

Tickets are $15 online and $20 at the door

To learn more about Susan go to http://susancowsill.com/
“Just Believe It” is Susan Cowsill’s first-ever solo album, but you probably already know her. The singer/songwriter made her initial mark on popular culture at the tender age of eight with The Cowsills, the 60s family pop group that not only scored Top Ten singles “The Rain, the Park and Other Things”, “Hair” and “We Can Fly”.
During Susan’s decade with roots-pop supergroup The Continental Drifters, she won the hearts of discerning listeners with her impassioned vocals and personally-charged songwriting, gracing three widely-acclaimed albums and a decade’s worth of riveting performances. Cowsill’s vocal talents have beautifully supported recordings from artists as diverse as Dwight Twilley, Redd Kross, and The Smithereens, while her compositions have been covered by The Bangles and Hootie and the Blowfish.

Cowsill’s much-loved prior work can now be viewed as a prelude to the stunning solo achievement of “Just Believe It”. The collection marks a musical and personal milestone for the artist, embodying the same qualities of musical craft and emotional nuance that distinguished her work with The Continental Drifters, while adding a deeper, more resonant and unmistakably personal edge.

For this show at Liberty Hall Cowsill will perform many of her past songs as well as those from her newest CD release, “Lighthouse”, with her drummer Russ Broussard (Continental Drifters).

Whether she’s delivering a heart-tugging ballad or belting out a punchy rock tune, critics agree that Susan Cowsill has an exceptional talent for connecting with a song’s emotional core. Rolling Stone praised “Just Believe It” as “The hardy, heartbreaking sound of…a bar-band angel…in the prime of her singing and songwriting life.” Take advantage of her time in Tyler and come….
