NOVEMBER NEWSLETTER
NOVEMBER
I’m here in Gulf Shores to do some writing and performing
with my friend, BRENT BURNS.
DATES
November 12
I will actually
be leaving the beach for a date in Indiana. That date is November 12 in Greensburg, Indiana for the
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE at their dinner and local awards show. It is open to the public. If you’d like to come…call
812-663-2832. Cocktails, dinner
and my show for $20. The event
will be held at the Knights of Columbus Hall.
November 15
I’ll be at a very cool venue near Gulf Shores called
PIRATES COVE which is located on the water in Elberta, Alabama. I’ll be playing a musical comedy round
with BRENT BURNS and KACEY JONES and it promises to be a very funny night. This night should sell out. Call 251-987-1224 for tickets.
November 18
It’s a return to the beautiful Villagio Grille located in
the Wharf Complex at Orange, Beach Alabama as part of the Frank Brown
International Songwriters Festival.
Two other writers will be in a round that starts at 7 pm. Great food.
November 19
A must see evening.
I’m back with my favorite co-writer Brent Burns for some back and forth
funny stuff at Lulu’s on the intracoastal in Gulf Shores owned by Jimmy
Buffett’s sister Lulu. Also part
of the Frank Brown Songwriters Festival.
Brent and I will on bar stools singing at laughing at 6 pm.

Songwriters Festival that runs November12-22 in Gulf Shores…so to
FBISF.COM. THIS IS THE 25TH
Anniversary of this festival that draws hundreds of great songwriters to the
beach.
November 28
After I return from Gulf Shores I’ll be in the round
again at PUCKETT’S GROCERY in Franklin, Tennessee with some of my favorite
musical friends, LINDA DAVIS and her husband, LANG SCOTT…as well as noted
producer and guitarist, BRENT ROWAN.
There is a $10 cover. Come
early for dinner…the show is at 8:30.
For more information call 615-794-5527.
For links and more information on all of my performance
dates…please check out the calendar section on my website or myspace.
I’m truly excited to let you know that the next single
from BRADY SEALS will be a song the two of us wrote together a few months ago
called “BEEN THERE, DRUNK THAT”.
It’s a great, fun, up-tempo song that you will find on Brady’s new CD
“PLAYTIME” available at bradyseals.com. Buy three copies! Brady’s record label has big plans for
the song including a tour and a video that you should see before too long. We are hoping that you will be hearing
it on the radio somewhere near spring.
Thanks to Brady for such a great record.
LOOKING BACK AT OCTOBER
It was a busy month of songwriting and I’m happy to see
the catalog growing bigger. Thanks
to all of my co-writers for penning tunes with me this past month…new and
familiar faces. I never get tired
of trying to create a little magic with words and music. I’m more and more confident that some
of these songs are going to find their way to your ears someday.
I had the pleasure of trying out some of the new songs
several times. Early in the month
I spent a night on stage with KACEY JONES and JESSE GOLDBERG…both of them
extremely funny songwriters and more.
Thanks to THE LISTENING ROOM in Nashville for having us.
I sat in with WATSON AND NASH on a couple of occasions
recently. Once at the COPPER
KETTLE…another time at the EDGEHILL CAFÉ.
WATSON AND NASH are a young duo with a new CD out called “MILEMARKERS”
that you can find at watsonandnash.com. There are four songs on their debut CD
that I helped them co-write.
And I spent four nights in Dayton, Ohio at the FUNNYBONE
with one of my favorite comedians, HEYWOOD BANKS. We had great crowds…and I want to thank so many of you who
made the trip up to Dayton to see me.
My old radio partner, AMANDA ORLANDO, came one night with friends…TOM
and BETTY OWENS, CHES, my Parrothead buddy and others. My favorite night was when a table of
twenty sang “GOIN’ UGLY EARLY” at the top of their lungs. Thanks to all for coming and laughing.
Don’t forget that I BLOG Monday through Friday. It’s my attempt at doing a radio show
in print. You’ll find the BLOG on
my website at billwhytecomedy.com
or at myspace.com/billwhytecomedy. The print is bigger on the My Space
page for those of you challenged by small printing. However…the jokes aren’t any funnier in the bigger font!
BIG NEWS
FIRST, THE WRITING
PERFORMING
My thanks again to DIANE DAVIS of WDKN 1260 AM radio in
Dickson, Tennessee for having me as her musical guest for a second time in
October. The broadcast is
available in podcast form at wdkn1260am.
Just look for the STUDIO 1260 podcasts and you’ll find the one hour show
I was a part of. Enjoy.
LOOK FOR THE BLOG
A HUMOR COLUMN
This is not a completely done deal yet…but mostly. It looks like I’ll be writing a weekly
humor column for THE BOOT which is an online BLOG from AOL. THE BLOG is all about your favorite country
stars…interviews…music…videos and much more. Check it out at theboot.com. I’m hoping by the time you receive the
next newsletter there will already be a column or two posted. Just look for my name.
Just a reminder that I am available to come to your house
for a private concert. With
Christmas on the horizon…it’s something to consider. Invite a bunch of your friends…everyone bring something to
eat and donate to the entertainer (me!) and you’ve got a Christmas Party to
remember. For more details just
shoot me a note at info@billwhytecomedy.com
BACK TO THE BEACH
CHRISTMAS HOUSE PARTY ANYONE?
While I’m in Gulf Shores I will be writing,
performing…and re-charging. I have
some family and extended family
and songwriters who will be down for all or parts of our month which
will make it even more enjoyable. The FRANK BROWN INTERNATIONAL SONGWRITERS
FESTIVAL runs for two weeks up and down the beach and it will be fun to drop in
on some musical friends while they visit.
HAPPY TURKEY DAY
I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving…and do remember
as you hold hands with family around the table to give thanks and be grateful
for the friends and family in your life.
See you soon.
