6. You have just made my day!

THANK-YOU THANK-YOU THANK-YOU!

If I should fall from grace with God
Where no doctor can retrieve me
If I'm buried neath the sod
Where the angels cannot reach me
Let me go let me go
Let me go down in the mud
Where the rivers all run dry

10. I think she's just singing

At least, that's what it says. I knew Shane had done a reunion gig with them in 2001, but I didn't think it was going to be anything more.

Please let them come here!!!!!

13. Well, half a loaf, I s'pose.

Maybe she'll knock Shane across the stage for old times' sake.

Heretical Notion #653: "If I Should Fall From Grace With God" is one of the best bluegrass tunes ever!

18. PLEASE let there be a US tour!!!

We miss them desperately - last time they were in Dallas, they almost destroyed the Arcadia Theater! It was that good. They even played Bottle of Smoke!
