    I caught a bit of it on the radio yesterday coming home from the store, but I'll try to listen to the rest of it today.

    Amazing that they had been together for 10 years already when the pic was taken!

    I really enjoyed the music on that other silly thread, and look forward to learning more about what they're up to these days.

    At the risk of bringing that other thread up, it is amazing to me how much better the mix is on this one. They sound really great here. I need to listen to this show more often.

    On the radio, no one can critique your "wan, tired" appearance, or your wardrobe. Chris did tell Garrison Keillor that he'd bought "new clothes" for the Nickel Creek national tour.
