We are back Twanging this coming Saturday night, and then an extra Twang the following Tuesday…Valentine’s Day! Whether you’re in love or not, BE THERE!!

Remember, Twang instructional DVD’s have been going fast lately. You can ALWAYS buy them here online OR at Twang. You usually get it within two days when ordering online. After taking some time with the DVD, you can show up at Twang and look like a pro!

Words can’t explain how much Jon has done in his many years. Other than myself and his parents, no one has seen the Twang like Jonathan. He’s seen the very beginnings, and the early struggles, and was a major part of getting Twang on the map…and then establishing it as the country dance club everyone copied. He oversaw a security staff that adopted a “no tolerance” policy when it came to rule breaking, and made it one of the safest places around. We wish Jon well in all he does, and I’m sure we’ll still see him around at times.

Jill helped oversee our admissions table for the past three years and was responsible for not only greeting you at the door, but countless other things. From decorations to painting to “on the road” events and even teaching here and there, Jill did it all. She, like Jon, will be missed. But, I’m sure we’ll still see her from time to time as well.

Both will eventually take their place as Twang “royalty”, and I am sure when our Hall of Fame is established, they’ll be on the first ballot!

As it pertains to Twang, over our 16 seasons, we’ve stayed number 1. At first, we were pretty much the only show around. Then, as more places came and went, #1 meant something. But, like album sales, or radio airplay charts, or movie ticket sales, or television ratings, the only true #1 is NUMBER OF PEOPLE TOTAL that attend. And, when it comes to that, the only REAL #1 is us. If we truly weren’t #1, we wouldn’t say it. It would be a lie. The moral of the story is that YOU continue to make us #1, and we love you for it! Actually the real moral of the story is that you probably could care less who #1 is…you just enjoy having a good time. It was just time we cleared up some of that nonsense…lol. When you’re #1, sometimes you are a target…so we just wanted to set the record straight!

As indicated previously on this site, it is hard to believe we’ve been doing this since 1994. We started from the ground up, and anyone else that has come along has been either a partial or total copy of us. And, as we’ve said before, we are proud of that. Proud of the fact that we had such an influence on entertainment in the area…and it’s all because of YOU. Whether you’ve been with us for years or months, you have played a part in this…and we’ll never be able to repay you.

Back on Wednesday night, we collected almost 200 cans at the door for Project S.H.A.R.E in Carlisle.  We do this every year to help feed needy families over the holidays.  This Wednesday night Twang has become a tradition over the years and as long as we continue to have crowds like last Wednesday, we’ll keep having it every year!!

We return this Saturday with a regular Twang.  7:15 lesson, 8 dance!

We are back Saturday night with another Twang!  7:15 lesson, 8-11:15 dance.  BE THERE!!!

Last week, 10 people competed in our grand prize “name that tune” contest, and of those 10, four walked away with an ipod, and 2 with a new TV!  Dozens more won cd’s, passes, and shirts.  Some of you were asking about the shirts we gave away at the door to the first 300 people.  We WILL be getting some more of those in in a few weeks.  We knew we’d run out obviously, but we didn’t realize so many people who didn’t get them would be asking for them.  Stay tuned!!!

As we always say, the great news about week 1 is that it is only the beginning!  As we get closer to winter, the crowds continue to grow, and eventually we’re back where we are every winter….wall to wall people!

Thanks again for coming out by the hundreds to ensure that season 15 will be one for the ages!!

We next take our Twang show on the road to the Carlisle Fairgrounds for their annual Fireworks extravaganza TONIGHT(July 5th). We dance from 7-9:30 on the big stage in front of hundreds, watch the fireworks at 9:30, and then dance AFTER the fireworks too! It’s part of the Carlisle Summerfair celebration and you can’t miss it!!

IF the fireworks are canceled, we will revert back to Twang and have a regular night there….UNLESS it is canceled too close to the time of the event.  In that case, we would cancel as well due to having no time to get back to Twang for setup.
Directions are below…
