Funny the memories a song can bring back. I was in the bunkhouse at the Cross Country Trail Ride I had been working on this song the night before, learning chords and fingering and all the vocals. I went to sleep and the next thing I knew there was a call from my brothers neighbor. They found him dead in his house that morning. I dont remember what day it was but it was the longest one of my life at that moment. We all deal with grief differently, I remember playing that song over and over and over again. I eventually did learn the song, and I know it means a little more to me than it does anyone else when I play it out somewhere. Music has gotten me through a lot of bad times. As I sit here tonight listening to some of these songs playing along with my acoustic guitar while I listen to them... I have a heavy heart with the passing of another guy I was glad to know along the way on this lifes journey. I will always remember the things you told me, the stories we shared, and all the fun we had playing shows together. I will work on learning another one tonight. You rest easy buddy.
