    The power of this song and the Avett Brothers.......This song makes me smile about my ex-wife. We did our honeymoon improvised up the PCH. The first town had a seaside bar we went to. This song reminds me of the good times. Even oi they ended.

Thank God for The Avett Brothers, and God Bless the whole Avett family and Band!

    Absolutely wonderful boys!!!! I LOVE the three part harmony!!! I was in a hair salon today, just on the spur. I said I was going to Gulf Shores and a guy behind me said he'd just gotten back from there. I asked if he'd been to the festival down there...he said yes. I said I missed my favorite band by only a few days. He asked who and I told him the Avetts. He freaked out and said, "THEY"RE MY FAVORITE BAND TOO!!! That's why I drove down there." Random Avett fan encounter, lol. Have a good un'.

      He has a good amount of songs on older albums, it's just that a lot of those songs didn't really fit his voice too good, his best was probably "the day marvin gaye died"

    David Childers will be performing at the Evening Muse on 6/15/11. It's a "Storytellers" kind of night called Off the Record mixing music and on-stage interviews. He'll be asked about The Avetts covering his song in addition to acoustic performances.
