Nickel Creek is named after a tiny place in west Texas that has 2 residents (now THAT'S tiny), but they aren't Texan.Blueberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17357299403457746440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12694343.post-34315651460234212472007-04-23T21:31:00.000-05:002007-04-23T21:31:00.000-05:00Nice music there blueberry!

Being a Texan I naturally gravitate towards it anyway ;) (Disco had a lot of strings in it and i am a HUGE disco bunni!)<BR/><BR/>thanks for sharing! gonna be looking up more of their works.Progressive Texas Chicanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00798638267420785734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12694343.post-90908536434337167392007-04-22T20:56:00.000-05:002007-04-22T20:56:00.000-05:00MB: it's all good.MM: Lucky you!

He is calling this new project "The Tensions Mountain Boys". Clever! Not sure when we'll see the Watkinses again. :-(Blueberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17357299403457746440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12694343.post-44990932334465937752007-04-22T19:17:00.000-05:002007-04-22T19:17:00.000-05:00That is one of my favorite tunes from an incredibl...That is one of my favorite tunes from an incredibly talented bunch of young people. I'm sorry they're moving on but you're right, when it's time, it's time. They essentially grew up together and already have had quite a career when most folks are just getting their careers underway. Makes my head spin. They're coming through NE Ohio in July and we'll be there.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing!!Mando Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08086172912612587749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12694343.post-21611127494858045272007-04-22T13:38:00.000-05:002007-04-22T13:38:00.000-05:00I gots to tell ya, you and Mando Mama get me all c...I gots to tell ya, you and Mando Mama get me all countrified with some of the coolish music y'all post. "Traditionally" I'm much more of a Metal Head, or hard, progressive rock at any rate. Electronic's been my passion lately, but this song, and a few things I've got from FtLoB have been wonderful li'l breaks from the tech music.<BR/><BR/>Thanks!Michael Bainshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13734972725056899460noreply@blogger.com
