    Saw John play 3 different times at the Ryman a few years back, great songwriter, great entertainer too. My brother turned me on to Colter and as a starving artist myself (cause I just can’t bring myself to play today’s so-called “country music” I’m thinking of just giving music up. Cause if ya ain’t at the right place at the right time & don’t know the right people...well that explains why I’m a starving artist haha. I digress, keep it up Colter, ya give me hope that truly good music ain’t dead yet.
    Still pissed that the goddamned virus killed Prine though, at least I got to see him at the mother church in Nashville a few times.
    Seems like a lot of singers are dying from covid, compared to actors etc...which is a damn shame. Not that I want anybody to get sick and die with it but just seems like it’s especially hazardous for musicians.
