A note of gratitude
"The essence of all beautiful art, all great art, is gratitude."
-Friedrich Nietzsche
Last week Tim took the back of our set list and made a list entitled "Dead Horses Is..." It was a list of all the musicians who have played with us throughout our time as a band. It was fun to travel back through time and think about the different phases we have gone through and the different experiences we have had. From Thursday nights at the Brookyln Bar and Grill to Waterfest to barn weddings to farmers markets to busking on the streets to bars to the UW Oshkosh recital hall to Mile of Music to just this last weekend at the Majestic Theater in Madison to a sold out crowd anxious to hear their favorite Wisconsin blue grass bands. It has truly been an honor. I can say personally that I feel so much gratitude to be able to work with Dan, Pete, and Tim as musicians and as human beings.
I think I can speak for all of us in extending a very warm gratitude to all of those who have been with us as musicians or listeners, singing and dancing along- for just one show or many. You are why we get to do what we do, and we love doing what we do. You are our friends and you are our family.
We are psyched to leave tomorrow for a week in Minnesota of playing all different types of gigs. Stay tuned!!

P.S. We are mountains!

We wouldn't waste our precious time coming to see you if you weren't good! I have enjoyed myself each and every time I have seen the band and have been impressed by your development. Good luck and enjoy your tour of Minnesota!
