Everything That Glitters (Is Not Gold) by Balsam Range
This is my current favorite band of all time, and the singer, Buddy Melton, is my current single favorite artist of all time. He taps into such sweet emotion with his voice.
I got to meet him tonight after this performance (that I recorded with my own phone), where he stood around and casually chatted with me one-on-one for about 20 minutes, in no hurry at all.
One of the many things we talked about was my hometown, and I was shocked to find out that he used to hang out in my hometown when he was younger and knows it very well. Still has friends there. He’s from North Carolina, right around Andy Griffith’s hometown, but the music folks down there seem to be very closely involved with and familiar with my people.
We also talked about Hurricane Helene, which hit us the same as it hit them. (For more details on that, see The Practical Woodsman podcast Ep. 37.)
One of the best nights of my life. Enjoy.
Ps. He has a firm handshake
What is your theory? I don't have a dog in the hunt about this, but I was just wondering with 30 or more Bigfoot sightings every year how come no one ever bags one? That is the one thing that makes me doubt. I read the sightings which are full of tales of people fleeing in terror, but almost no one ever opens fire. What do you guys think?
