Sadly it’s not John Coltrane, but still a can’t-miss event nonetheless. Singer Dana Lyons, best known for his comedy hit song “Cows With Guns,” is stopping in Spokane on Wednesday, September 26th at nYne Bar and Bistro for a concert as part of this “Great Coal Train Tour”.
Dana is touring communities from Billings to Bellingham and from Portland to Coos Bay along the route of the proposed coal export trains, raising awareness about the dangers of coal exporting and coal trains.
These trains (up to 50 additional 1.5-mile-long trains per day on the main corridor from Billings
to Portland and 20 additional per day to Bellingham) would carry millions of tons of coal from Wyoming and Eastern Montana to west coast ports where it would be exported to China. Dana will perform a concert and give a short informational presentation on the effects of the proposed coal export trains.This is a FREE event, and donations will be accepted to offset the cost of the event. This is being sponsored by The Lands Council and Spokane Riverkeeper
