It was a pleasure meeting you and hearing your music last night. Hopefully you'll pass through these parts again for some more music-sharing, whiskey, and one-eyed kitties. Happy Trails!
I find the best way to pass the latter half of my afternoon at work...is to read almost everyone one of your blogs...it was a very nice trip that you lead me on. Thanks for that! It enlightened my heart and gave my day meaning. I cannot wait to read the rest...~til then
What a fun show last night. You guys sounded great, love the way BJ's drumming just sealed the deal. Think the whole Silverhands project is the best possible vehicle for your musical soul and genius, Mike. Keep that Datsun rolling and cover as much ground as possible so the country can hear your songs ...
