Information/Write-up

In March 22, 2002 we found ourselves in the recording studio again, or maybe I should say John's basement again to record our fourth CD. like our namesakes, we ran back and forth from our dens in the dead of night, not to rub and pilage, but to make some music. Our families saw very little of us during this time; every night, Saturdays and Sundays, we were lost in a sea of coffee and cables. The songs we selected are indicative of just some of our individual tastes. Irish Ballads, pub tunes, country, rock and roll and the ever present bluegrass influence.

Dave our Banjo player showed up one night with a drum kit and John sang some rock and roll. Billy Bob Wiseman wanted to record "Countin' Flowers" and I played lead guitar. Chuck, a little freaked out by all of this, just sait back and belted out the "Cliffs of Bacclieu".
