Have Yourself a Little Tater Christmas. Update 12-02-03

Lots of stuff going on in Taterland this week, and we hope to see you at some of them! We had a great show last week with the Grandsons in Falls Church, and we're looking forward to a rematch! To everyone who made it to that one, thanks for adding some Taters to your Thanksgiving plans! We also debuted our new Christmas CD single at that show - see below for information on how to get one.

Check out the "Taters" link at Bob Keeton's Living Successfully website. You can hear a snip of the interview we did with Bob, along with a preview of our Christmas CD single - http://www.livingsuccessfully.com/

You can hear the whole song at the Washington Post MP3 site - http://mp3.washingtonpost.com/holidays03/holidays03.shtml
Maria has a whole page featuring holiday music from area artists.

Also, check out the holiday offerings at our Cafe Press shop - http://www.cafeshops.com/thetaters
There are 2 new tree ornaments, and a toddler-sized Christmas T for the Tater Tots in the family!

Our first Christmas single is out this year, featuring an original tune, and a cover of "Santa Bring My Baby Back To Me".

You can pick one up at any of our December shows, or write us at info@theTaters.com if you'd like one by mail. Tune in to some of the radio shows this coming week to hear what it sounds like, or stop by Bob & Maria's sites to hear a clip -

What's "FF"?

So many of our fans are little folk, so we try to let you
know (when WE do!) whether a venue is "Family Friendly" -
that is, do they allow/encourage younger fans, etc. If
we're off the mark on any of these, please let us know!
---------------------------------

The Taters are available for private and corporate
events. Contact us at info@theTaters.com

Enjoy the season - ready or not, it's here!
