    1. It's just a question of keeping the alcohol levels topped up Adam

    2. Adam is hilarious. He has missed one day the entire holiday season... and he had two posts on the 23rd. I would call you both prolific. Jason and the Scorchers were always a favorite in this house.

  2. Toptastic tunes. Great twangy guitars on track one. I might have to get this with my christmas money

    1. The second song is more indicative of the stuff on the album George.
      Probably more ballads than twang

  3. Hope you don't mind but I've pinched the Bible and Gun track. Loved it. I'll be looking out for Jason Ringenberg in the new year
