With the name and the recognition that we've had for the last 15 years here in the business, I really think that we can make a difference and just let people know that, hey, bluegrass is cool, it's hip, and it's awesome, and if it's done in a great way and a great presentation, I don't know who wouldn't like it.

It doesn't matter if you stick the name 'bluegrass' on it. I think people call things bluegrass that I wouldn't necessarily call bluegrass, but what they're calling country music today I'm not sure that I would call country music. But I love music and I try to encourage people.

I thought it was really cute, since it talked about Appaloosas, and that's what we are. I like it because it's different than the stuff we usually play. We haven't done bluegrass before. Usually, we play a country song.
