Reminds me of a passage in a book I one read which said:
I hope you never feel the pain, disrespect, devastation, demoralization and trauma you have instilled upon me. I hope you’re having a good time making all of your friends laugh at a confused person who was just trying to figure it all out.

Went to one of the concerts by this group. The opening guest took forever. When this group finally got on stage, they got in two songs and the storms hit. So got soaking wet, and did not get to enjoy their concert – it was canceled because of safety which I understand BUT I did so want to hear them, in person. This happened at Kearney, Missouri, two summers ago.

What a phenomenal piece to hear ! It reminds me of the early to middle 1800’s music period songs. This group is fantastic and talented. Fascinating in this music and the story behind it.
