@lewiemcneely9143 hi from Pennsylvania. I garentee I'll fit in. I love my country and I'm a army veteran. And I've been as far south as north Carolina . I went gold prospecting in the national forest. . The people were sincere and very kind to this Pennsylvania hill Billy. That's what I am. I work for the Pennsylvania game commission . For my lively hood working in the forest for wildlife. And the south is beautiful. . Im glad we are one nation. BUT IM NOT A BIDEN SUPPORTER. AFGHANISTAN WHAT HE DID WAS TREASON.
@@user-wo2iw3kt8o Penn. has hillbillies too. We're not far from the Blue Ridge Parkway, Pisgah National Forest, the Cradle Of Forestry and Gorges State Park and Whitewater Falls in NC, the western end. Smack dab in the Blue Ridge and not far from the Smokies also. Wiggle room to be had!
Gents. Thank you for yet another great song. Not only is the song great to listen to, it is also interesting to learn about the history of it. Thanks. Regards from the UK. Bob
Howdy, Neighbors! Hope all is well and things are heating up, weatherwise too! Lots of folks here say my hoecake ain't NEAR done but it's MY hoecake. It may NEVER get done! God Bless All Yall from (Us'ns) just across the line!
@@2ndSouthCarolinaStringBand No, thank YALL! I'm always right here unless I have to go to the V.A. but that's as seldome as I can get it. Got grass to mow, just like yall and remember, my hoecake is REALLY RAW in the middle! God Bless All Yall Wonderful Folks! Yall ALWAYS get a grin out of me! ALWAYS!
@@2ndSouthCarolinaStringBand would love a channel update from time to time. Love the music and would be interested to hear how the boys are gettin’ on.
Do you guys do 1830s rendezvous? I would love to see you down here at the Florida frontiersmen alafia river rendezvous. My friend does logistics for the dance. We could probably get you some good pay and accommodation if you’d be willing to travel down here. I’m talking maybe a year in the future though. It would take a bit of planning.
Well, thanks for the invite, Sean ! Very kind of you. Sadly, the only place you'll be able to see us 'in action' going forward, will be on RU-vid. The band DIS-banded at the end of 2019, mostly due to aging-out. We started together in 1989, when we were already in our mid-40's. The 'annoyances' of aging, PC/Cancel Culture and in late 2019, the restrictions of Covid all combined in a sort of perfect storm that made it clear the time had come for us to 'drop the mic’ and leave the stage... It is said, ‘All good things’… etc., etc’. And so they have. It was a GREAT ride while it lasted, thanks to good folks like yourself. But now, for us the ‘ride’ has closed and it’s time to go home. We have been truly blessed. Thanks for asking though. I wish we could have had better news for you. If we were even 10 years younger, it'd be a different story. That said, we truly appreciate your kind inquiry. Hopefully, you'll keep an eye out for us here.
This was recorded in July of 2013 - the 150th Gettysburg reenactment (GAC - not the 'authentic' one the weekend before). We hired a man to come down for the Saturday of the dance, to capture that amazing scene at the end. He also shot video the evening before and all day Saturday. This is but one of the many we have 'in the can' that for the past several years I have been editing myself (the banjo player). P.S. ~ Thanks for the kind word, btw !!
