Get ready. Kinky Friedman's Southern Discomfort Tour will invade Winnsboro on Saturday, February 11 at 7:30 pm.

Kinky's tour is winding through Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, Misssissippi and Nashville where he'll perform his off-beat songs. Attending a Kinky concert is pretty well mandatory for any true-blooded Texan and those who have fled from the North and California to make Texas their home. 

Get your tickets now. It's going to be a sell-out. 

Advance tickets: $30
Reserved seats: $35

When Lynn Adler and Lindy Hearne opened Crossroads five years ago, music and the arts were here, but pretty well unknown to the public at large, especially to those in the Dallas area.

With their own music, as well as the performances of many other musicians they enticed to Winnsboro, Crossroads started catching the attention of music lovers from Dallas. Many of these are weekenders who own second homes on one of the many lakes in the area.

Perhaps more importantly, they also raised the profile of Winnsboro as a place to find seriously good roots music so even critics in Dallas noticed.

Today, Crossroads' musical performances take place in the Winnsboro Center of the Arts in anticipation of renovations being completed on the new home of Crossroads on Market St.

The 5th Anniversary event reminds us of the impact Crossroads has had on the expanding music scene in Winnsboro. It also gives us a chance to thank the founders who made Crossroads a cornerstone of the arts community.

Here's a special bonus. . . Lindy's daughter, South Plains College sophomore Kate Hearne -- who appeared many times on the front-porch stage at the Main Street location -- will perform as well. Lindy's son, Denton-based singer/songwriter Warren Jackson Hearne, will be featured too.

In case you've missed all my romance-laden communications, here's a quick round up of what's going on in town this weekend.

Three of our favorite B&Bs have special packages including Thee Hubbell House, Oaklea Mansion and The FARMHOUSE at Hunter's Moon Farm.

Thee Hubbell House, Double C Steakhouse and Crossroads have the Great Romance Package which includes the Master Suite at Hubbell, dinner at Double C and music at Crossroads.

Oaklea Mansion is offering $35 one hour massage for any guest staying two nights. The FARMHOUSE will welcome you with chocolate and champagne when you stay two nights.

The events start Thursday night with a return visit from Andrew McKnight performing at the First United Methodist Church. He weaves quite a speel with his Americana music laced heavily with the sounds of the Appalachian mountains.

A noon on Saturday, Tinney Chapel will be hosting a free Valentine's Day chili lunch at their location just a couple of miles south of town. You probably have to be from Texas to appreciate their reason: Nothing says love like chili.

Those lovebirds Adler and Hearne are performing at Brewbaker's Valentine Dinner and Concert, Saturday, February 13. The $30 ticket includes dinner and the performance with your choice of Royal Beef Tendeloin or Rainbow Trout.

Saturday also mean Rhett Butler will be back at Crossroads performing at the final concert in the current venue. Mayor Carolyn Jones is sponsoring this very special concert.

It's all here waiting for you. Come and enjoy yourselves!
