We recorded this on tour last month. You don't know what ya got til it's gone.
It's a time to be thankful for songs. It's a time to be thankful for rooms full of people. It's a time to be thankful for the opportunity to drive from city to city to play songs for rooms of people.
I'm thankful for the many people who took us in this February and March when we were in Germany, Austria, and the highways of the Czech Republic. I'm thankful for the people we played with, the people running the venues, the people running sound, the people who gave us a meal to eat, and the people who gave us a place to sleep.
I'm looking forward to a time when we can gather in rooms again. Until then, we can be thankful for what we had, helpful to the people around us, and hopeful for a future where we can share songs/food/stories/art/magic/education in rooms with each other again. Even if a good amount of that looks like staying at home.
Let's be smart, listen to medical professionals, and make sure as many of us get through this as possible.
Until then - songs help. Thanks to Colin Meloy for this one.
