Following a string of packed-out showings and critical acclaim in Portland and beyond, the outrageous and unapologetically bold outlaw country musical Whiskey Dixie & The Big Wet Country is coming to Astoria! With its Award Winning Soundtrack, sharp political satire, and strong feminist themes, this timely musical promises to captivate Astoria audiences looking for something refreshingly different. This film will be hosted by comedian Tyler Shilstone, who plays Jerry in the movie. Set in a small-town dive bar, the film follows Whiskey Williams, a messy, mid-30s honky-tonk diva navigating her rise to viral infamy. Written by Singer/Songwriter/Comedian, Amanda Richards, Whiskey Dixie is a blend of satire, sexual liberation, and musical fun that offers a witty yet biting commentary on contemporary issues. From its electric beginnings as a stage play, to its evolution into a feature film, and now embarking on the beginning of the road tour, Whiskey Dixie & The Big Wet Country has left sold out houses of audiences with sore faces from laughter. With key themes such as empowerment, reproductive rights, and the influence of pop culture, the musical has a heart and a backbone that makes it so much more than just singing, dancing, and telling jokes. Amanda has created something that is truly timely, relevant, and important. Astoria Screening Event Details: • Date: Saturday, November 9th • Time: 8PM • Venue: The Painted Lady Saloon & Cabaret, 1180 Commercial St., Astoria, Or. • Tickets: www.WhiskeyDixieMovie.com Written, directed by, and starring Amanda Richards, Whiskey Dixie & The Big Wet Country is a provocative commentary on contemporary American culture. Mixing raunchy humor with outlaw country flair, the film explores topics like gaslighting, and reproductive rights, and finding fulfillment outside of societal norms—all wrapped up in a feminist, comedic package. Characters like Whiskey, a midlife honky-tonk diva, and her bartender/voice of reason Trish, offer a glimpse into lives filled with chaos, humor, and empowerment. The film has garnered attention from major outlets, including KGW-TV, Willamette Week, and Oregon Music News, with KOIN-TV calling it a “Portland Classic.” Quotes from the Media: • “Whiskey Dixie will be a Portland Classic” — KOIN-TV (CBS Affiliate) • “A uniquely sex-positive comedy with a razor-sharp femenist edge... it kicks ass” — MovieCuriosities.uk • “Funny, Radical, and Powerful” — Willamette Week Audiences are thirsty for something raw, real, and original. Whiskey Dixie & The Big Wet Country embraces the raunchy and ridiculous but doesn’t shy away from touching on the deeper societal issues we’re grappling with. It’s about reclaiming our narrative, having fun with it, and inviting people to laugh until they think.

Her work has been published with Harlequin, Tule, and other romance publishers. Although she primarily writes romance, she has short stories and nonfiction published as well. When she's not grading, writing, or searching for the perfect vanilla latte, she can be found on the hiking trails behind her home with her daughter and puppy. Author talk starts at 4 p.m.; refreshments and mingling at 5 p.m. "Library After Dark" is a monthly PNW author series. This event is free to attend and is sponsored by the Friends of Warrenton Community Library.

Self explanatory in nature - bagpipers come to buy or sell clothing, bagpipes, etc. this event is more than just a swap meet. Highly skilled bagpipers will play through-out the day at the swap meet (on various kinds of bagpipes, Flemish, Irish, Scottish, etc.) to entertain the bagpipers and general public. After the conclusion of the swap meet. The general public is once again invited to an afterparty of sorts (an open jam or session) where fiddles, guitarts, whistles will be brought out to play Scottish classics.
