WOW!! - Posted 01/25/2012 Thank you for the AWESOME show !! I can honestly say I have been a fan of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band since I was 5...I used to go to the "Block Partoes" in LB...and come watch you guys practice. I haven't seen you or heard your music for over twenty years John but I had to tell you what an awesome time we had at your Coffee House concert! So intimate, we got to sit right in fromt and to see the love that was on stage between you and your boys only made the beautiful music that much better. How truely blessed you are to have your loving family and the GREAT talents that God gave you all. I can't wait for the opportunity to see you all again. We will be watching the Opry next month :) Thanks again!!!!!

What are the Other Four in Your Top Five? - Posted 01/06/2012 John: Just curious: in reference to your comment about the new "McEuen Sessions" album being in your top five - what are the other four? All the best for 2012, Tom

What a great night! - Posted 12/13/2011 Dear John, Nathan, & Jonathan, Well,,,, guys. Last night’s Myo͞ozikəl performance at the MIM was totally Mag-ˈni-fə-sənt !!! In my lifetime, I have been to 18,503 concerts, which is exactly 10,003 more concerts than the older, frosty-haired McEuen has performed. Having those experiences and credentials, I can safely and confidently state that last night’s concert was the absolute best one that I have ever seen/heard in my entire life In case you were/are wondering what that really means - - well, that means your gig last night topped my long-standing (~43-years) first place concert ranking - - ->>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Jimi Hendrix, 1968<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< It was really great seeing you guys, and Hans was great too. Sorry, Jonathan, I do not have your e-mail address, so perhaps your Dad and Bro will forward this message to you. Kathy, my wife, said that you will be playing in Tucson during January, 2012. I might have to cruise down for that. Keep on strummin’ and have a Merry Christmas. Sincerely ~David

Magic at the MIM - Posted 12/12/2011 What a great evening at the Musical Instrument Museum with John, Nathan and Jonathan. I was really looking forward to this show for months and was not disappointed. Great music "Old and New tunes" and wonderful stories and humor. The McEuen boys Nathan and Jonathon could of carried the show on their own with the playing skills unique vocal styles but it just great to see the joy in their Dad's eyes as he played along with them. I was listening to the Circle album prior to the show and hoped John would play some songs from it and he did. They closed the show after the encore with Dan Fogelberg's "Leader of the Band" which was dead on the right selection. Thanks again for a great evening and we are looking forward to the new CD coming out soon

FANTASTIC IN COTTONWOOD AZ - Posted 12/12/2011 What a great show!!! The stories were great and the music wonderful! It was so nice to see Nathan and Jonathan. When they sang Happy Birthday to their dad and said they loved him it brought a tear to my eye. Sooo sweet! And meeting John and shaking his hand was the best!! Please Please come back soon!

doggonit! - Posted 11/11/2011 Sure hated to miss you guys in Colorado Springs a few nights ago. Had something important on the schedule that I couldn't get out of. Friends said it was a great show and they enjoyed talking with the band afterwards. Oh man, I'm jealous! Guess I'll have to wait 'til next time and hang on to memories of West Fest in the Springs a while back, and your concert at Louisiana Tech way back when. Still enjoying all the LPs and CDs including Speed of Life. Dirt, Silver, & Gold has to be the best compilation ever. It was magical when I bought it as a teenager back in '77, and I love it even more today. Blessings to you and the band!

Mr Bojangles voice - Posted 11/01/2011 I just listened to a recording of a 1968 interview with H. C. Speir who found and recorded many blues artists back in the 1920’s and 30’s. To me he sounds exactly like the voice coaxing Teddy to sing on your 1970 Mr. Bojangles recording. Any connection? I haven’t been able to find any info on this.

someone so great with a huge heart - Posted 10/30/2011 i am writing this note due to the fact that a person whom helped take care of johns mom had passed away this past week and she was one of the greatset women i know...she loved gerri as much as i did. she was also a huge fan of john and the band.. may she rest in peace and prayers to her family. please if at all possible pass this on to john and the members....with great appreciation and thank you sooo much.

north ga fiddlers conv - Posted 10/22/2011 John met you you back in 1996 never forgot you and the lesson you taught me. I have carried it on in my own music. I give to others something you buy and encourage them and teach them what i know. Thanks John and God bless you. Your brother in Christ. Kenneth Newell

Thanks John - Posted 10/21/2011 Over many years I've looked to you for musical inspiration, advice, entertainment, laughs, fun, and a lot more. Today I read your remembrance of your friend Rich Williams. It made me think of the friends I've had over the years who have meant a lot, and still do. He must have been one special guy. Thank you John

the show! - Posted 10/20/2011 I saw your show Saturday night in Effingham, Ill. and it was so awesome I wanted to cry. I was in the second row and I had the perfect seat. You guys are so awesome! I have never written anyone like this before but I just wanted you to know how happy your music has made me over the years. I have been a fan for about 30 years.... since high school. (I graduated when I was 12 by the way) It just took me this long to finally see you in person. I'm sure you hear this all the time but your music really touches me on a level I'm not sure I can even describe. It reminds me of a sweeter time in my life when I was young and had the whole world in front of me. I don't want to get too deep or anything so let's just say it makes me smile. Really big!! Anyway thank you for putting on such a great show and I hope to see you again soon. Thank you again for the greatest music!!! Debbie

Acoustic Traveller - Posted 10/18/2011 Hi John, I wanted to drop a quick note. Acoustic Traveller arrived today. I was blown away. After a days work, it was a nice escape. Thank You. If I may ever return the favor, let me know. I am a good listener. I don't know why our paths crossed but I have enjoyed your stories and your music. Look forward to getting that autographed book........HA! Regards, Fred

Amazing show at the Opry ... - Posted 09/26/2011 Hey John, As a long-time fan and Californian, I had long looked forward to hearing you play Saturday at the Opry. I about fell over when you walked in past me, and felt very fortunate to see and hear you walking the halls warming up. It was a thrill to hear you the same night as another long-time idol, and to see up close (front row) your expressions and how much you enjoy playing. Thanks for a great, feel-good show!

Good show for the Vets - Posted 09/01/2011 Thanks for the music for the American Legion on Tuesday night. Good way for us fo spend an evening. God love ya.
