Antsy McClain & The Trailer Park Troubadours Return to The Majestic Theatre in Benicia, CA on Saturday, March 31, 2007

American's Old West was tamed by rugged visionaries who crossed the fruited plains in covered wagons, carrying with them everything they owned, and rolling away in search of new horizons. These pioneers - fiercely independent and wildly creative - carved out a lifestyle still evident in American today...

....in our nations' trailer parks.

As our vast melting pot of a country evolved, so did the covered wagon. Large wagon wheels and stretched animal skins gave way to steel belted tires and aluminum siding. Many of these mobile homes eventually rolled up to their desired horizons, and communities developed, dotting the landscape. Families grew out of these communities. Until today, million of Americans count themselves amoung a proud and select group known as trailer park dwellers.

One of these proud Americans is songwriter and humorist Antsy McClain. Growing up in a small Kentucky trailer park called Pine View Heights, McClain had what he calls "a memorable and idyllic childhood," filled with colorful characters and extraordinary events. Life in Pine View Heights has given McClain a wealth of experience from which to draw - and write. Penning the lyrics and msic to seven Trailer Park Troubadour albums, as well as hi own, critically-acclaimed solo record, "Time-Sweetened Lies," McClain is fast becoming one of the most respected songwriters in Americana/Roots music today.

McClain grew up hearing all styles of music in Pine View Heights. Antsy (whose given name was Ronnie Joe - the nickname "Antsy" being pronounced upon him by a junior high school couch) devoured every kind of music he could find. He listened to everything from Bill Monroe to Aretha Franklin, from Steely Dan to George Jones, until eventually, he was more confused than most of his peers, who listened strictly to 70's commercial pop radio. This confusion formed the basis for his songwriting, and explains the almost schizophrenic nature of his recording projects. Late nights listening to diverse radio programs like The Grand Ol' Opry and Dr. Demento further cemented his unique outlook toward music and entertainment.

Anty's 5-piece band, The Trailer Park Troubadours are a skilled assortment of musicians who play in the rootsy, rock and roll tradition of their hard-working, blue collar forefathers. McClain calls the music "folkabilly," and their live shows are a unique, critically-acclaimed mix of masterful musicianship and self-deprecating humor for all ages. The Troubs, as they are called by fans, are committed to taking their unique blend of music around the globe, showing up wherever they're invited - and then some.

Their live shows are a unique critically acclaimed mix of masterful musicianship and self-deprecating humor for all ages.

Reviews of Antsy McClain and The Trailer Park Troubadours

"Antsy McClain is a hard-country troubadour with some connections. Tommy Emmanuel plays on several tracks and Lindsey Buckingham sings harmony on Time-Sweetened Lies. Creative, rootsy, and wonderful. If you like it served 100 proof, step right up." --Robert K Oermann, Music Row News, Nashville

"Antsy McClain raises the standard of trailer park culture, seeing the lifestyle as an extension of America's pioneer spirit as we conquered the Old West. His band, the Trailer Park Troubadours, takes this legacy and puts it to song, calling it folkabilly and keeping their roots solidly in rock and roll." --Aril Helmer, The Express Times, Easton, PA

"With musical influences ranging from Woodie Guthrie to Waylon Jennings to Van Halen to Cake, one can't help but be intrigued by their lively, colorful songs of life in American's most forgetten neighborhood -the trailer park. With song titles like 'It Ain't Home Til You Take the Wheels Off,' and 'She Too the Mobile Outta Mobile Home,' the band will sing about the pleasures and heartaches of American trailer park life." --The Desert Advocate, Phoenix, AZ

"Antsy McClain and The Trailer Park Troubadours combine the dueling, rustic guitars of Americana/rock with clever ballads and anthems dedicated to the values of American's simplest aspirations. A master of imagery, McClain encircles you with Pintos, mosquito bites, corn dogs smothered in Velveeta, flamingo lawn ornaments, and small town carnivals, leaving you little time to switch from recklessly doing the twist to crying in your beer." --Amanda Martinez, Good Times Weekly, Santa Cruz

"The band played a James Brown-style introduction for the men behind the madness, and when they strutted on stage from the back hallway of the Little Fox Theater it was either the immediate kazoo solo or their clothes - a menagerie of plaid and polka dots --that let you know you were in for something different." --Leah Barvels, San Mateo Daily Journal

"These self-proclaimed 'sons of hitches' are bona fide musicians, songwriters and performers. If you're not singing along by the time the reprise of 'It Ain't Home' rolls around, you'd better check your fun-o-meter." --Tucson Citizen

"Besides pulling audience members up on stage to dance, lead singer Antsy McClain spent a good portion of the show in the aisles working the crowd. With his impromptu comedian-with-guitar persona, Antsy put on a performance that seemed more like he was entertaining among his pals inside one giant trailer." --The Metro Active, Santa Cruz, CA

"When I first looked into the Trailer Park Troubadours, I was prepared for them to be funny. What I wasn't prepared for was these guys are flat-out GREAT. Their humor is obvious. When they sing songs like 'My Baby Whistles When She Walks' (it's not what you think) it's a scream. But then, a few songs in, you hear something as poignant and rich as "primer Grey Impala,' and you kinda sit up and tak Tips: Find Street Fashion Online(may be you can find what you want on the oasap.com) e notice. These guys can reallly, REALLY, play and sing." --Take County Back, http://www.takecountryback.com

"Expect to be entertained...You'll get what you came for." --Bluegrass Magazine

"Antsy McClaiin is a storyteller of the highest degree. Every song is a vivid portrait of Americana, painted with poetry so effortless and clever, you'll find yourself being pulled along happily into the world of The Trailer Park Troubadours." --James Dellasandro, Screenwriter and author

"The Trailer Park Troubadours are hysterically funny, fast-paced and fresh." --West Side Theatre, Newman, CA

Eva Alexander’s Tips on Finding the Best Maternity Dress for Every Figure

Maternity wear today is attractive, sexy, comfortable and stylish. It's designed to compliment a woman's changing body and make her look and feel great throughout the nine months of pregnancy. One must have essential during this time is a good maternity dress. Finding a stylish maternity dress is not only about fashion, it also requires an understanding of a woman's figure, the styles and designs that complement her body type, and a good knowledge of fabrics that are soft, comfortable, and durable. Regardless of whether a woman is short, tall, extra curvy or slightly built, there are a variety of maternity dresses to choose from that will look great on each and every shape.

Understanding body shape is the first and most essential rule for dressing fashionably. As Coco Chanel once said, "Fashion is architecture: it is a matter of proportions."

Short Women – Short women look best in streamlined tailored clothing. Consider dresses that are all one colour paired with heels, a look that will add inches to a small frame. Dresses with an empire waist are a great look too because it creates the illusion of longer legs. If prints are in season, look for smaller prints, delicate details, and subtle embellishments. Avoid large prints, floaty fabrics and tent dresses that will overwhelm a small frame. Colour blocking typically doesn't work well because it visually "chops you up" and makes a woman look shorter than she is. Any colour blocking that is done should be about accenting a base colour rather than breaking up a silhouette into large blocks of colour.

Full Figured Women – For women who are size 18 and over, there are now even more maternity wear choices than ever before. An important point to remember is that clothes should outline a woman's body, accentuate cleavage and complement the waist. Choose maternity dresses that have a lot of movement and divert attention from the thighs, hips and tummy. Wrap dresses are ideal because they skim the waist, enhance cleavage and hide a multitude of sins. Look for darker colours that will also create a sliming silhouette.

Pear Shaped Women – The classic pear shaped woman has rounded hips and thighs that are slightly wider than her shoulders. The best looks on a pear shaped woman are styl Tips: Find Street Fashion Online(may be you can find what you want on the oasap.com) es that have a shapely waist, balance the upper body and draw the eye to the shoulders and arms. Look for empire waist dresses because they focus the eyes to the narrowest part of the body. Dresses with fitted tops and A-line skirts are also a great style. Avoid mini-skirts or baggy clothes, both will draw attention to hips and thighs.

Apple Shaped Women - The classic apple shaped woman has a large bust, narrow hips and slim legs. Body conscious dressing for apple shaped woman is about accentuating the cleavage and legs. Look for open or scoop necks that expand the chest area and make a woman look more in proportion. Solid colour, crossover, and wrap dresses are also ideal. Avoid horizontal stripes, large prints, dresses that are too baggy and ruching at the shoulders.

How to Make Good Choices When Buying a Maternity Dress

Choose maternity clothes that accentuate a woman's best assets. Focus on fabrics that are fluid and drape well. A bump-flattering wrap dress may look great on the hanger, but if the fabric is clingy, itchy or is prone to static and sticks to your undergarments, it will end-up in the back of the closet never to be worn again.

Pick brands wisely. A cheap dress is great for a week on the beach, but after a few washes the fabric pills, the colour fades, and the fit and shape of the dress have deteriorated. In difficult economic times value for money is important and fashion is more about fewer quality pieces that will continue to flatter a woman's shape and look great regardless of how many times it's washed and worn. When buying designer maternity wear, make sure it is quality and good value for money.

Don't confuse Fad with Fashion. Current fads often don't translate well into maternity wear. Choose colours that complement your skin tone and hair colouring. Dress to complement your shape by picking styles that are simple but classic and cut to accentuate your assets.

Maternity clothes must be adjustable. Women who are going through pregnancy the first time around are often surprised. Only in the second trimester, have a few pieces have been purchased. The third trimester is when a woman really begins to grow and if the first few maternity wear choices weren't well made, she'll be out shopping once again. Look for maternity wrap dresses which are always very flexible or maternity dresses with ruching, layering, or pleating in the front. These types of styles should see any woman through her pregnancy and beyond.

Following these guidelines will make every woman look fantastic during her pregnancy!

Shop the Far Out: A New Way to Shop for Fabulous Fashion Online

Founder Geraldine Calixte, views clothing and accessories as a form of self-expression. There are no rules to personal style, no limitations to how a woman can show off her panache. This is where Compliments of You becomes an integral tool of the website.

"Ultimately it's not about filling a trend, it's about finding items that work for your features," emphasizes Geraldine, who passionately focuses on individuality. "The best accessory is confidence, and when you find a piece that fits and looks great, that confidence inherently shines through." Geraldine doesn't stick to any rules. "I've heard about the basic seven or eight…white shirt, perfect jeans, little black dress…funny, I have NONE of those!" No two women are alike; some women are more downtown a la Zoe Kravitz while others prefer Blake Lively's uptown chic. Shop the Far Out recognizes this and embraces those differences. It gives women permission to find something different that doesn't necessarily play by women's jackets the rules, but still looks great.

With brands such as Bleulab Reversible Denim, Fallon, Madison Harding, NSHA and Rebecca Minkoff, Shop the Far Out has something for everyone.

It is the first web-based 3D simulator that takes into account the physical properties of the human body, such as the torso, fat, glands, skin and muscles, in order to simulate the insertion of implants in a realistic and accurate manner.

The e-Stetix state-of-the-art 3D simulation tool is based on the latest advancements in surgical technology, 3D, biomechanics and information technology, from two world-renowned research & development centers, the Institute for Surgical Technology & Biomechanics at the University of Bern, and the Federal Polytechnic University of Lausanne, both located in Switzerland.

Simple, fast and intuitive with no uncomfortable examinations

This advanced 3D technology, which generates an immediate 3D simulation of the patient's pre-surgery body from standard 2D photos, facilitates the consultation, and contributes to increased understanding by the surgeon and the patient of the desired outcome.

This in turn allows the surgeon and patient to analyze how various implant sizes, profiles, positions, and surgical techniques will affect the final result on the patient. Once the patient photos and measurements are taken the entire consultation can be conducted with the patient fully dressed, making the experience much less uncomfortable.

Are you a Cosmetic/Plastic Surgeon?

Swinton Survey Reveals Young Generation's Frustration At 'Rip Off' Car Costs

According to what is believed to be the UK's biggest ever survey* of young drivers, commissioned by leading insurance broker Swinton, 73% of young drivers under the age of 25 say their social lives are being blighted due to high insurance costs.

The poll, which questioned 2,900 young people on their attitudes towards motoring, revealed that those who can't afford insurance, over a quarter (27.10%) admit they have committed the offence of driving their parents' car wi women's coats thout their own insurance, or know someone who does this.

Over 70% (73.26%) of youths questioned believe that owning a car is a key step to becoming an adult, and a huge number - nearly 90% - believe a car enables them to be independent. But a majority (50.50%) believe motoring costs are a 'rip off'.

Insurance costs for 17-25 year olds have hit new highs with recent reports that average premiums often top ?4,000 per year for young men and ?2,000 for young women .

94.73% of the sample says that high insurance costs are having a negative impact on their social lives. Large numbers of this frustrated generation say that choosing to run their car means they have cut back on buying clothes (27.29%) or holidays (16.93%) and are prevented from going on nights out (27%).

Those that do own and maintain a car reported being used as a taxi service for friends (63.93%), with nearly half (43.39%) claiming their friends fail to contribute to petrol expenses.

When asked if they would be willing to install technology to a car that monitors driving behaviour including speed and hours of driving, with the aim of rewarding safer drivers with lower insurance premiums – 65.92% said they would install the device if it significantly reduced car insurance costs.

However, more than half of drivers surveyed would not refrain from driving during the hours of 11pm and 6am to reduce insurance premiums, indicating that night-time socialising is still an important factor for young drivers.

Steve Chelton, Insurance Development Manager at Swinton said, "We are all aware of the rising costs of insurance for young drivers, but the impact that this is having on their social lives is often overlooked.

"The results from this survey clearly highlight that young car owners feel they are being exploited. It is costing them a fortune to enjoy the lifestyle that previous generations took for granted.

"Insurance companies need to address this issue so that the UK doesn't end up with a stranded and frustrated generation of young drivers, some who are breaking the law in order to drive a car."

Electric Gypsy Vintage Dresses Extend Limited Wholesale Release of Vintage Inspired Reproduction Dresses to Stores Worldwide

To date, the online-only store has focused on individual orders, with very limited advertising in Vogue's annual Vintage Vogue edition. Emma Marsh, designer and business owner said: "We're a small business. But we want to reach more women who love vintage reproduction dresses which are handmade in Britain and inspired by original dress designs. We think it's time to share our beautiful vintage inspired dresses through boutiques and vintage stores worldwide."

Over the past two years Electric Gypsy has been building a collection of genuine 1920s, 1930s, 1940s and 1950s dress patterns from which she adapts the dress patterns to fit modern proportions. "Women used to wear underwear such as 'waspies' that nipped in the waist. We've adapted the dress designs so that corsetry is no longer necessary!" Because proportions have changed, the vintage dress patterns need to change too. Each dress in Electric Gypsy's collection has gone through a painstaking process adapting the pattern to the modern female figure to ensure comfort – whilst remaining faithful to the spirit of the original pattern. "Our vintage inspired reproductions fit a wider range of women better than original items. They are more comfortable and more forgiving to today's female proportions."

Designer Emma Marsh believes that the surge in interest for vintage dress styles has spiked because of television series such as Mad Men and Boardwalk Empire. But there is also a ferociously loyal crowd of vintage fans who have always wanted to look the part and have quietly spread the word through social media. Electric Gypsy has a thriving Facebook community of over 400 members where new dress designs and newly acquired fabrics are regularly posted for feedback. This is, perhaps, the hub of Electric Gypsy's approach: "We're listening all the time. By getting feedback from over 400 Facebook members on fabric swatches and dress designs we've posted, we focus on making dresses that people really want to wear."

The vintage inspired dresses are available in sizes 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18. The hand women's coats made dresses are typically priced in the online store at between ?42 and ?72 "My business adviser keeps telling me to put up prices because the dresses are hand made in Devon. But I want to keep the dress range affordable for everybody to enjoy."

Until now, the Electric Gypsy has mainly sold the vintage dresses online at http://www.theelectricgypsy.com. Customers choose the dress style and then the fabric. "Because we're a small business, we can allow customers to choose from a variety of fabrics before we make the dresses. Some bolts of fabric are special vintage finds – so the final dress ends up being something really quite special. You're very unlikely to meet anyone else in the same dress – even if you visit a 3 day festival like Vintage At Goodwood. And if you do, it'll be a conversation starter! I like that about our business – it means we can make something special and unique for our customers."

The number of dresses available wholesale to boutiques will be in strictly limited quantities and on a first come, first served basis: "I don't ever want to sacrifice quality simply to meet demand – I'll run a waiting list before I compromise on quality." Electric Gypsy's wholesale minimum order is ?150, with a minimum requirement of 2 dresses in the same style and fabric – in any size. The company also accepts international orders and ships worldwide.

About Electric Gypsy

The Electric Gypsy is an online vintage store selling handmade vintage reproduction dresses adapted from original patterns and designs – all handmade in Devon, England. Dress prices start from ?30 with free UK delivery.

Emma Marsh of Electric Gypsy welcomes interviews and questions from both press and vintage bloggers worldwide.

Baby Riddle Releases New List on What to Buy for a Newborn Baby

"What to buy for baby?" is a common thought that plaques new and veteran parents regarding baby clothing. The choices can be overwhelming and a little confusing. Baby Riddle has put together a baby list to keep the confusion away and give you the knowledge on what baby essentials you will need when it comes to baby clothing.

The trick is to weed out all the fun accessories from the essentials.

1. You will want to go with the basics.
The basics are bodysuits, layette gowns, one-pieces, sleepers, hats and socks. Baby Riddle has a checklist of the numbers of the baby clothing pieces, which can be found on their site http://babyriddle.com.

2. Then you should think about the quantity.
Great questions to ask yourself: Realistically, how much time do I have to do laundry? How much laundry do I want to do? The more baby items you have on hand, the less laundry you will need to accomplish. It is a good idea to plan for any setbacks Cesarean section, complications with your delivery, the needs of multiple children or health issues with your infant.

3. Next, consider the size of the clothing.
Though it is hard to predict the size of your newborn, according to several studies the average weight is between 6-8 lbs. The majority of birth weights are between the 6 lb and 7 lb range. Many women purchase the 0-3 Month size and the clothes are too large for their infant. Unless you have a history of having large babies, 9 lbs or more, it is a good rule of thumb to purchase the size Newborn to avoid this frustration. Usually your child will fit into this size for a month or two. Baby Riddle suggests being prepared with the Newborn and 0-3 Months sizes.

About Baby Riddle:
Baby Riddle was founded by a Registered Nurse and an entrepreneur. The nationwide online company is based in the United States. The company carries extremely cute baby clothes and also has a great service for women who are keeping their baby's gender a surprise.
