Williams and Ree, Spearfish & Huron, SD

Bruce Williams and Terry Ree are South Dakota's favorite homegrown comedy/music act, also known as "The Indian and the White Guy." They've been regulars on the Hee Haw TV show, and had their own cooking/comedy show starring alongside Florence Henderson on the old Nashville Network for several years. They are now a staple on the tribal casino circuit throughout the U.S. and Canada.

While they make a point during their shows that "we are all the same," they love to make ethnic jokes, mostly about those who Bruce calls "teepee creepers." Check out more about them at http://www.williamsandree.com/

Here they are at the Tretheway Pavilion in Spearfish, SD in about 1983.



And at the South Dakota State Fair in Huron in 1995. While known mostly for their comedy, they are actually very talented musicians. Of course, some of their songs are based around comedy, but...
