	KnowTheMusicBiz	Thanks for all the great music and fantastic live shows over the past decade! You guys will be greatly missed. Are you still playing the show with Jason Ringenberg on 2/8? Is there a new venue for that show yet now that the Hideaway has closed?   Posted by KnowTheMusicBiz on Friday, January 11, 2008 - 10:07 PM [Reply to this]

	Maria	Ok this really blows. My husband brought me to one of your shows and I have been a diehard fan ever since....with the CD on constant rotation in my car. We have seen several shows. I was bent out of shape when we couldn't go to the 12/8/07 because we had out of town guests! I have NEVER liked any kind of "county" influenced music before in my life, and I think you guys are just the greatest and could be The Next Big Thing with the right push. :(( Maria   Posted by Maria on Saturday, January 12, 2008 - 6:02 PM [Reply to this]

	Uncle Lightnin'	Hey John, sorry to hear that you guys are calling it a day, although we all understand the stresses and strains being in a band can place on one's sanity and life in general. We enjoyed the opportunities we had to work with you - it was always a pleasure. Good luck to all of you in the future - if any of you end up in Chattanooga at any time look us up. You will be missed by your friends and fans (us included), Richard, Doug, Andrew, Dan, and John - aka Uncle Lightnin'   Posted by Uncle Lightnin' on Saturday, January 12, 2008 - 8:07 PM [Reply to this]

	Thunderkiss 65	The little woman and I were planning a road trip this year specifically to finally catch you. Guess we will watch for the finale and try to make it.

	♥LISA♥	I thank you so much for the great music which litterally has not left my cd players in over three years. I'm going to miss you very very much but i will remember all the good times I've had over the years at your shows. wow I saw you guys play at the sylvia theatre in york, and the room in charlotte when hardly anybody else was there..... good times, good times. I have been crying about this but I do look forward to see what each of you come up with next.   Posted by ♥LISA♥ on Sunday, February 17, 2008 - 11:11 PM [Reply to this]

	al	What a bummer. Sorry to learn that news. The musical landscape loses a great band with your demise. Good luck with future projects. Hope you'll all keep those musical irons in the fire. Kudos on a great career, unkudos on the passing of an alt-country institution.   Posted by al on Saturday, February 23, 2008 - 5:39 PM [Reply to this]

	China Grove Mafia	Sad to see you go. This sucks! Maybe this will be like the Camaro, where they shelve it for a few years and it comes back again?   Posted by China Grove Mafia on Friday, February 29, 2008 - 12:40 AM [Reply to this]

	The Broken Spokes	Sorry to hear that I wont get to hear you guys play live again...I guess it really is impossible to make it playing real country music. You guys definitely were an inspiration to us. Thanks for all the great music.   Posted by The Broken Spokes on Wednesday, May 14, 2008 - 8:38 PM [Reply to this]

	RiCK SAUNDERS Rick Saunders	Dammit! I never got to see you live. If I had a dollar for evr time I've played You've Grown Tired of Me and then rewound it then rewound it again just to hear the line " I don't need another pal to tie me down. specially not the kind that makes me shake when she's around." i'd be rich but branded as a weirdo! Y'all gave me a lot of happily miserable listens. Thanks for caring about making quality music.   Posted by RiCK SAUNDERS on Friday, May 16, 2008 - 12:23 AM [Reply to this]

	Tim Jones	NOOOOOO!!!!!! I just found you guys here a few months back. You WILL be sorely missed. You guys are a HELL of a band. Best wishes in all that you do.   Posted by Tim Jones on Saturday, June 14, 2008 - 2:15 AM [Reply to this]
