Generate your own contact table! "Dust Bowl" was a term born in the hard times from the people who lived in the drought-stricken region during the great depression. The term was first used in a dispatch from Robert Geiger, an AP correspondent in Guymon, and within a few short hours the term was used all over the nation. The "Dust Bowl Days", also known as the "Dirty Thirties", took its toll on Cimarron County. The decade was full of extremes: blizzards, tornadoes, floods, droughts, and dirt storms. (Excerpts from "The Dust Bowl, Men, Dirt and Depression" by Paul Bonnifield). This goes out to all of our Chain - Gang Partners: We formed in May of 2006 after a few friendly drinks led to some serious plans on creatin a unique soundin' band. We love real Country and Hillbilly stuff old traditional Folk, Blues, Gospel and Spiritual anthems, Rock-a-billy, Americana and all the underground Rock & Punk of coss'. Yet, we didn't want to just form a revival band either. We wanted to introduce contemporary themes that people nowadays can relate to and this is how Dustbowl's unique "Freight Train Ramblin' Sound" came to be. Our songs can be likened to the train's lonesome whistle, the wailing of the rails as the long black iron horse glides over'em. Dustbowl is all about love lost and found, about being sorrow-bound and lonely, about livin' like a modern day "hobo" that¹s a-driftin' and a-ramblin', about pickin' a tune with some friends...I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 I edited my profile with "JOHN HENRY" LIVE AT GAGARIN DECEMBER '07 "And here for the first time I saw my beloved Mississippi River, dry in the summer haze, low water, with its big rank smell that smells like the raw body of America itself because it washes up." Jack Kerouac, On the Road "Tell About the South . . . What's it like there. What do they do there. Why do they live there. Why do they live at all."
