Ditty Bops Springfield show

The Ditty Bops' 2006 Bicycle Tour has confirmed another concert stop -- Springfield, Ill.

Amanda Barrett and Abby DeWald will bring their music to Illinois' state capital at 8 p.m. Sunday, July 30, at the Underground City Tavern at 700 E. Adams Ave. The club is located in the bottom level of the Hilton Springfield.

Amanda and Abby are cycling and sweating their way through Kansas this week. They play Friday night in Lawrence, Kan., and Sunday night in Kansas City, Mo. They're expected to take the Katy Trail through Missouri next week with a concert in Columbia on Wednesday. They play the Mad Art Gallery in St. Louis on Friday, July 28.

Once in Illinois, they're planning to travel the League of Illinois Bicyclists' new Route 66 Bicycle Trail. Bloomington remains on the tour calendar for Aug. 1, but no venue has been listed for the show yet.

Thanks for the reminder...I sent it to a couple of friends in KC and Spfld--maybe they'll go see them.

The Ditty Bops were FANTASTIC! I highly recommend you see them. They did a Wizard-of-Oz themed show for us, but when I met Abbey afterwards, she said it was "special" for Kansas City. She assured me they would do something special for you guys, too. It was a very entertaining show, not too loud, not too long, just perfect.

My friends loved the show, too.

Thanks for the heads-up!!
