    Josh is an incredible guitarist. But I really appreciate just how consistent Carson is with his picking and rhythm. He's a great accompanying guitarist and a brilliant lead vocalist. Josh is the opposite i.e. a great accompanying vocalist and brilliant lead guitarist. You guys balance and compliment each other so well! Love your content!

    I would pay more than I did to see some of the greats in concert if possible. I'm in the south east and we have bluegrass festivals all the time, when the shows are over the playing keeps on all night at the camp fires. Everytime I watch it puts me right back there, watching the best unknown string pkayers in the world can be found there. Sad thing is they are right back to work Monday morning. Cool thing is they could care less...

  • @blackdogbite

    Carson and Josh,
    This is a beautiful, well -crafted song performed with incredible soul. Chord changes and melody are great. Your vocals are fantastic and the lyrics are evocative and express a level of emotion and maturity that many musicians never seem to reach. And you're working in so many genres and on so many different instruments. All the more astonishing given your age!
    I was telling my wife that back in the 70s, when I was a kid playing music, there was no one in my whole circle of friends and acquaintances who had this level of talent , soul and skill. And that was a period where everyone seemed to be playing and listening to music. Hat's off guys. You are ready for Nashville or pretty much anything you want to do I'd say. Looking forward to seeing you on tour soon.

    Man sometimes it’s like watching Croce and Muehler in 1973! The guitar work and voices would lend themselves well to I have to Say I Love you in a Song. He wrote it for his wife who was so exasperated at his never coming to bed, staying up all night to write songs! Don’t work so hard you forget your loved ones, ok guys?

    I just can't give these guys a sufficient number of "thumbs up" for ALL of their music. These two, by themselves, are amazing enough...but they have SO MANY talented friends and cohorts that they collaborate with. Musicians. Vocalists. And whoever it was that did all the editing on "The Weight" was just spot on! These folks are just fantastic and I truly hope that they make it all happen for a very long time. I just wish I was half as talented as any one of these people.
    What I really, REALLY love is when they crack themselves up at the end of a cut. The one that really sticks in my pee-brain is the two of them doing "Folsom Prison Blues" and just losing it at the end.
    Boys?...{and I can get away with callin' y'all that cuz I'm 62}...if y'er out there somewhere listenin' to all this chatter 'bout you...I hope that you know that you have a vast fan base that spans generations. Even us "old fogeys" love y'er music.

    intro x2
    If I was a fool and you were drunk
    We'd be in the backseat making love
    But I ain't no fool
    No I ain't no fool
    If I was 35 and you were 35 too
    We might live together on 15th avenue
    But baby I ain't grown, though I'm older than you
    Hear the sirens moan
    And the freight trains blow
    I can't love you
    Intro
    There's nothing wrong with a little fun
    Fun ain't worth no heart ache when the deal is done
    I'm going down
    To where nobody knows your name
    And I can't believe how far its gone
    One second I had everyones attention
    And now everybodys gone and I'm thinking out loud
    In a dark and empty room
    I got my heart broke by a love note
    And I can't love you
    We can run away to calvary and spain
    We can burn all the records and change our names
    And when they say that love don't wait for you
    I'd tell them that they're wrong if it's not true
    That's what I'd do
    If I was a fool
    Please correct if I'm wrong.

      But I ain't no fool
      E5add9
      No I ain't no fool
      (Same again)
      If I was 35 and you were 35 too
      We might live together on 15th avenue
      But baby I ain't grown, though I'm older than you
      Chorus
      F#m
      Hear the sirens moan
      A5add9
      And the freight trains blow
      B5
      I can't love you
      Solo
      (Intro chords)
      Verse
      There's nothing wrong with a little fun
      Fun ain't worth no heart ache when the deal is done
      I'm going down
      To where nobody knows your name
      And I can't believe how far its gone
      One second I had everyones attention
      And now everybodys gone and I'm thinking out loud
      In a dark and empty room
      Chorus
      (Chorus chords from before)
      I got my heart broke by a love note
      And I can't love you
      Bridge
      A5add6/9 E5add9
      We can run away to Calgary and Spain
      A5add6/9 E5add9
      We can burn all the records and change our names
      G#m Bm7 A5add9
      And when they say that love don't wait for you
      G#m Bm7 A5add9
      I'd tell them that they're wrong and it's not true
