The Hitchiker's Guide To Branson, MO - A five-part series by Heath Hawkins Heath Hawkins Biography - Heath's 2005 Archives
2006 season reviews below ► July 29, 2006
Being an experienced Ozarks traveler I
have seen my share of “Ozark” style shows. Branson has it's share of
shows that fall into this category, but there are other great shows
out there. One of my favorites has always been the Ozark Mountain
Hoedown in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. I thought the comedian was one
of the funniest anywhere ► April 30, 2006
4-30-06 Families come to Branson to
have a good time. That is what Branson is all about. Mommy and
Daddy, Brother and Sister, Grandma and Grandpa, even friends and
neighbors come in cars, trucks and buses all with the same
intent—Vacation! What is a vacation but a time to escape from the
reality we face every day. It is a chance to get away literally and
in the mind as well. ► April 11, 2006 Titanic Museum - Heath Hawkins
4-11-06 My wife and I attended college
at Hannibal-LaGrange College in Hannibal, MO. Now there is no
question about who the most famous person from Hannibal, MO is. Mark
Twain and his boyhood home have been immortalized in print for
decades. ► April 10, 2006
The old Branson standard is better
than ever. In Branson, there are only a handful of shows that have
withstood the test of time. In the Live Entertainment Capital of the
World, any show that survives one season is lucky. Any show that
makes it to the end of their second year has a chance. After 5 years
a show could almost be considered a Branson fixture. However, when a
show remains as popular as the Presleys’ for more than 20 years,
then you know they have to be good. ► April 10, 2006 There are some things in the world that are almost unbelievable, things that absolutely blow my mind. I had the opportunity to witness a show that fits onto that unbelievable and mind blowing category. The new Kirby VanBurch show is without a doubt the best magic show in Branson. ► March 28, 2006 I am almost embarrassed to admit this, but I severely underestimated the Doug Gabriel Morning Show. My regular readers know that I love the comedy shows. I often choose a show based on how funny I think it will be. I like music, but I love comedy. After seeing the ads for the Doug Gabriel Show I saw no mention of comedy, so I was very apprehensive about seeing the show. I just knew I would not enjoy it. ► March 28, 2006 3-28-06 Heath Hawkins: Long time Branson visitors will remember the name Bart Rockett. He had a three-year run in town a few years ago at the Magical Theatre, where Kirby VanBirch now performs. ► March 27, 2006 3-27-06 Heath Hawkins: I knew that I had to see the most talked about new show of the 2006 season. The Branson Brothers have had their new show up and running for less than a month, but there has certainly been a lot of buzz surrounding them. I wanted to go see what all the talk was about. ► March 7, 2006 Branson Itch: Branson Critic Editor Plans First Trip of 2006 (not a review) ►
