THE VINE
Welcome to issue #10. Well friends, I won’t whine too much about it, but I do want
you to know that the issue you are now reading is my second at- tempt at the new issue. That is, I was almost finished with layout last week when I hit the save button and the dreaded “spinning beach ball” popped up. (Mac users, you know what that means!) Also known as “spinning cursor,” I guess because after it didn’t go away for ten minutes I was spinning and cursing! I have been doing layout in the program QuarkXpress for over
20 years now, and once in a while, it just freaks out. No problem. I simply save, hit “force close” and reboot. Only this time, after the reboot, my master file would not reopen. My other Quark files were fine, but my master layout kept telling me that it could not be opened by “this version” of Quark - the latest version! Argh! Long story short, it took forever to get a live person on then phone, and when I did, it was a foreign lady who whispered. No kidding. She was not exactly on top of things either. She had about as much business working tech for a high end software company as I do being a jazz dancer. Where do they get these people? After talking for 20 minutes, I had to submit a “ticket,” and e-
mail them my file. They were going to try to fix it. That was six days ago. Yesterday, I began a marathon rebuild. This stuff takes a lot or hours, folks, especially photos and captioning. But alas, we got ‘er done! I hope y’all like it! We have some pretty cool interviews. I started to call the issue
“The Kids are Alright.” I have a Duane Betts interview yet to tran- scribe, and since the issue features Vaylor Trucks (son of ABB drummer Butch) and Scott Boyer, Jr. (Son of Cowboy singer/gui- tarist Scott Boyer) it sounded like a plan. But at the last minute, with a little help from my friends, I scored an interview with Johnny Cash’s drummer, W.S. Holland, a real rockabilly legend! I decided nobody deserved the cover more. Also in the issue, Roxanne interviews an outstanding singer-
songwriter named Jessi Lynn, and then scoots off to Tybee Island with camera in hand. By the way - thank you to everyone who supported The KUD-
ZOO Radio Hour during our four-year run. We have not ruled out returning in the future, but for now, the work load with all that is going on was just overwhelming and something had to go. Thanks again for reading KUDZOO, and please feel free to send
us your thoughts, emails and tweets. Keep it Real. Keep it Southern.
