- DarWilliams.net has been moved to a new server with more
space, so I encourage fans to send photos, e-card designs, chords for
songs, and anything else you can think of. There's lots of space to put
more up on the site. Thanks to everyone who contributes information and
more.
- MEDIA
ALERT: On Dec.
25 from 10 am to 1 pm EST WFUV.com will
be streaming a concert
featuring Dar Williams, The Felice Brothers, Bruce Hornsby, and James
Hunter which was recorded at the Society for Ethical Culture in New
York City Dec. 2.

November 22, 2008
- There has not been very much to report lately. Dar's on
tour but not a ton of interviews or new dates being set up!
Anyone who has any photos from the shows, I'd love to see them.
Also, if anybody is going to a show (there are none anywhere near me
and sadly, I've not seen any portion of this tour), I'd love a t-shirt.
Email me if you can help me in this quest.

Charlottesville, Va. has been added to the library.
