Dan and Andy provide a review of a recent show they attended at the Ames Center in Burnsville, MN. The Folsom Prison Experience starring Jay Ernest (Johnny Cash) and Kat Perkins (June Carter) was an excellent show! Right from the start when "doors open" you will know you are not in "Kansas" any longer. The sights. The sounds. The feel will be like you are at Folsom Prison on January 13th 1968. Don't mess with the guards or the warden. They have a job to do! Even the ever serious DJ/emcee Hugh Cherry has a job to do and won't let you forget it. Oh, and don't be late for "Roll Call" or you could end up in the hole!
