Tim Bays The witty and comical folk singer Tim Bays will perform tonight and tomorrow at the Golden Spur at 8p.m. Contemporary Sounds has presented artists that are more well-known and with larger .. i * r ? njuuwiii?i>, uui iew provide me kind of versatile entertainment Tim Bays does. TIIV1 BAYS began his professional career in 1972 at the not so tender age of twenty-five. The years before found him as a foundry and assembly line laborer, as a florist, short-order cook, wallpaper hanger and sometimes a college student. Along the way he sang in a variety of gospel and folk groups and took up the guitar. During this eight years as a professional, Bays has played with such imaginatively named groups as Curb Service and Leonard Wolf and the Missionary Position Band. Yet his best shows are always when he can be himself ? by himself. Bays is famous for his Buffalo song which features an audience sing-along. Here the crowd assumes various animal parts and howl, bark, chirp and buzz to "buffalo gals won't you come out tonight."

He is a poet first. Much of his music is lyrical and beautiful and his songs are often vividly descriptive ballads. The man is talented and can conjure an awful lot of music out of only six strings. This versatility allows Bays to play for, not at, his audience. His talent with lyrics and guitar have earned him concerts with the likes of John Prine, Leo Kottke, Steve Goodman, and David Bromberg.
