A Prairie Home Companion (1979-04-27)

Annotation

*first use of "Where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above average."

The 40th Anniversary timeline gives the date of the show as April 29, 1979 (Sunday), but doesn't give the location or other info. APHC Anniversary Album liner notes indicate there was a show in River Falls, WI on April 27, 1979 (Friday). This page confirms that there was a show in River Falls in April 1979, but not the exact date. It's possible that these were two different shows, but until I find more evidence I will assume that one or the other is a typo.
