So, if I was to think of one thing that's changed the most for us since releasing "Stay", I would have to say it's the amount of states we get to go to on a daily basis. These last two weeks we've literally driven over 4500 miles going from Nashville to Colorado to Minnesota to Wisconsin to Florida and then finally Knoxville. It's been such a great ride.

We played a show with Steve Azar a few weeks back in Colorado Springs and had a blast!! We've been lucky with how much radio play we've gotten out there and how many people are coming to all our shows!! We've made some awesome friends at Fort Carson. We always dig hangin out with Army friends, but these guys are serious soldiers that make you start to understand what it means to work hard everyday.

After that show we literally got in the van and drove straight through the night to play another radio concert in Mankato, MN. It was a crazy long drive, but the north mid-west states are covered in fall trees now which made the drive amazing!! We actually got to hang for awhile in the ol' Minnesota Wisconsin area. Over the years we've made so many friends up in the north country, it's starting to feel like a second home. What I love about the people up there is almost every girl and guy either fish or hunt. Total outdoor people. Love it!! There is one thing though... it snowed on us in the beginning of October!!! Seriously cold up there, man!!

We headed from Wisconsin to Florida!! We actually stayed at a place one block away from Hulk Hogan's old place. Nice!! We went from fall trees and snow at 30 degrees, to palm trees and 90 degree weather. Gotta love Florida!! We had a blast going from station to staion meeting people. In fact, at one station we had a guy call in and invited us to join his hunting club!! Love it!!!

We got to end our trip with a cool show in Knoxville. What made it really great was we had a group of girls who first saw us open for Brett Michaels forever ago come to the show with T-Shirts made. One of them had every song from the Four Sqaure Miles record and the other had the chorus of Riverbank on it. We love that stuff!! When people get invested in our music it is pretty overwhelming. That feeling that someone else likes our music besides ourselves is awesome!!

The single is going great!! We debuted at 41 on the charts the first week. Almost all stations that have added the song have now tripled the radio play per week. So much of that has to do with all of you calling in and requesting our songs. When we come to stations we hear hilarious stories about certain people calling in everyday saying "Play the song!!!!" Ha!!! Now that's a TelluRide fan! In a couple of weeks we leave for a huge tour of the US. We will hit most of Texas, Colorado, Arizona, Nevada (including two Vegas shows!!), California, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Washington. It's going to be an awesome run!! Keep looking at our show dates and hopefully we can see a bunch of you on this run. As always keep calling and we love the support!!

Hey Brian, when is TelluRide coming to Alabama?  I have seen you twice, loved both shows.  I treasure my pics I had made with all of you because I know one day your name will be as common as Rascal Flatts or some of the other big names out there.  I still say a cma award is in your future, it is coming, you can count on it.  TelluRide is soooo talented, it will happen.

I got to see you guys at cowboys in the springs. YOU ROCKED!!! You were more then happy to sign things for us and were more then happy to sign a beer bottle that you drank out of for one chick. Which I thought was awesome.  My fave part was when you performed Fat bottom girls, and how many facial expressions you guys make when playing.
 

 I got you to sign your picture for me and have it up with the pic we took together, I see you guys doing big things and going to even bigger places. Keep it real. YOUR GUYS ROCK!!! Thanks for such a great show.
