The Down Home played The Bitter End in November 2010. The end result was a pretty awesome Live Recording; Live Recording 1) Recording where all the musicians are playing at once and overdubbing is not done. 2) A recording with a lot of natural reverberation. 3) Booze, Friends, Fans, Fam in the village. 4) Rock and Roll 5) Smiley face

lyrics
While reading through a family history book that I found at my grandmothers house back in late 90's i came accross a letter. It was transposed from its' original. the letter was from an ancestor during the civil war at the battle of gettysburg. In the letter were the first hand accounts of what was happening during the battle from the battle field.. the letter was too his wife.
