Don't be bullied into cheering up or thinking positive. Don't let anyone tell you how or when to be happy. Stand up to happiness bullies. Frown, it's already happened. Come and celebrate misery and country music, but don't jump off the Tallahatchie Bridge. 'Pure, dead, brilliant' ***** (Scotsman). Let's have a drink, put on some Johnny or Dolly and ride that lonesome train together. And remember, your life will never be as bad as Tammy Wynette's... 'A knack for funny storytelling' **** (BroadwayBaby.com). 'A naturally charismatic story teller' **** (Fest).
