It was great to meet and play with you guys at the Last Concert Cafe!

Just wanted to let you know how much we've been enjoying your CD. Especially your version of "Fraulein" is wonderful...we hit repeat and played it all the way from Amarillo to Oklahoma...

Thanks for the beautiful driving music. Gonna put it on a mix for Dave's dad who is sick in the hospital with leukemia (if you don't mind us putting it on there).

Thanks so much & hope to see you again sometime,

Lisa & Dave

Thanks for the friendship. You guys are awesome. Miss Gimble's vocals are beautiful. My biggest idol on mando is Tiny Moore, wich I'm sure you know played with Bob Wills and the Texas playboys for years. As soon as I heard you guys I wanted to come to Texas and jam with ya. Wishing you many happy musical journey's ahead. Peace, Redd
