    love them. I've been listening to them for about 8 years and I think they are just getting better and better. When they play a show, they always seem to be having so much more fun than anyother band does. 2008=2 nights yonder red rocks, labor day weekend. YMSB's NYE party is always a blast.

    when they aren't being beer monkeys, and they have grown up a bit, I love them.
    I lover their interpretation of No Expectations and Snow in the Pines is still a set maker for me.

    Amazing band. Their concerts are always crazy, they've got great energy and the crowds got even more.

    I have seen Yonder many times over the past 4 years and they are only getting better and better. You never know what kinda covers you will get. I have gotten Crazy Train, Polka on the Banjo, Up on the hill where they do the boogie, Maggie's Farm & Come together with KW on NYE 04 more than I surely remember!

    But def go see these guys...

    Jeff? Shy? hahahahahahahahahhahaaaaa!
    he's a music theatre geek and a complete show off.
    I think, not sure, but I think he can out-talk my sweetie, and we call him a "ceaseless fountain of words."
    but yeah, Jeff's a man of few words and a restrained soul. :D

    I absolutely LOVE them! Definitely my favorite bluegrass out there right now, they're what I miss most about colorado for sure.

    I really wanted to go back to see them at red rocks this summer, but alas, I'll be in Israel then :(
