[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] >> THANK YOU.

>> THANKS, KEVIN.

KAOMI LEE HAS A SPECIAL MUSICAL GUEST.

KAOMI.

>> THANKS, ERIC, I'M HERE WITH DAVINA SOWERS FROM DAVINA AND THE VAGABONDS.

WHICH MANY OF YOU KNOW, THEY'VE BEEN PLAYING THEIR HEARTS OUT IN THE TWIN CITIES AND GLOBALLY, BUT BASED HERE FOR ABOUT 20 YEARS.

SHE AND THE VAGABONDS WILL BE PLAYING AT 1:00 AND 2:30 AT THE BANDSHELL, UNDERWOOD AND DAN PATCH INTERSECTION.

SO IF YOU'RE LISTENING TO THE RADIO OR IN THE AUDIENCE AFTER THE SHOW, HEAD ON OVER TO THE BANDSHELL AND YOU CAN GET TO SEE THE FULL BAND.

AND IF YOU'RE WATCHING THIS ON TELEVISION, YOU CAN JUST SIT BACK, RELAX, AND ENJOY THIS TREAT FOR US.

DAVINA, WELCOME!

>> THANKS FOR HAVING ME!

>> NOW, YOU COME TO US FROM ALTOONA, PENNSYLVANIA, I DID A LITTLE DIGGING.

>> THAT'S RIGHT.

>> BY WAY OF KEY WEST.

>> YES.

>> AND HAVE BEEN BASED HERE FOR ABOUT 20 YEARS.

>> YES.

>> ALTHOUGH TOURING CONSTANTLY.

WHAT IS IT ABOUT MINNESOTA THAT KEEPS YOU GROUNDED HERE?

>> I THINK THE PEOPLE.

I'VE NEVER LIVED -- AND I'VE BEEN AROUND, FOLKS, JUST LETTIN' YOU KNOW.

AND I'VE LIVED SO MANY DIFFERENT PLACES IN THE UNITED STATES AND THERE'S NOTHING BETTER THAN MINNESOTA.

THE PEOPLE ARE SO KIND.

[ APPLAUSE ] THE FOOD IS AMAZING.

I IN FACT FELL IN LOVE WITH SNOW, WHICH IS WEIRD, CONSIDERING I MOVED FROM KEY WEST HERE.

SO, IN FEBRUARY.

SO BUT IT'S WONDERFUL HERE.

AND THE STATE FAIR.

COME ON, Y'ALL, WE GOT VOTED NUMBER ONE IN "USA TODAY."

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] >> Cathy: NOW, THERE'S A LOT OF ADDICTIONS AT THE FAIR.

FOOD ADDICTION, CROP ART ADDICTION, PEOPLE, ANIMALS, BUT SEE WHAT I'M DOING HERE WITH THE SEGUE.

>> I DO, I DO.

>> BUT ADDICTION AND MENTAL ILLNESS ARE TWO THEMES YOU TALK ABOUT OPENLY IN YOUR INTERVIEWS AND IN YOUR MUSIC.

WHY IS THAT AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

IS IT YOUR MUSE?

>> I MEAN, I THINK IT'S JUST IMPORTANT, YOU KNOW.

I AM RECOVERING AND I'VE BEEN RECOVERING FOR MANY YEARS.

AND I DO TALK ABOUT IT FREELY BECAUSE IT'S JUST, I MEAN, IT HAPPENS AND IT PLAGUES COMMUNITIES AND I THINK, YOU KNOW, IT'S TALKED ABOUT A LITTLE BIT MORE NOW BUT WHEN I WENT THROUGH ADDICTION IT WAS REALLY TOUGH, NOBODY REALLY GOT IT.

SO ANYWAY, I JUST WANTED PEOPLE TO KNOW HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO DISCUSS AND, YEAH.

>> OKAY.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO PLAY FOR US, DAVINA?

>> THIS SONG IS CALLED "BONE COLLECTION."

IT'S A SONG I WROTE BASED UPON ME JUST WANTING YOU GUYS TO LIKE ME.
