Rockin' since '69, and these guys are some of the best I've ever heard. Been listening since "The Gleam." The Beatles of Bluegrass! The new album captures that essence. This is their "Revolver." Imagine their "Sgt. Peppers" still to come ...

i am in shock!!!!! I pretty much stared at the guide description on tv where it said "avett brothers"! And isn't it so fun seeing how long it takes to learn EVERY WORD of every song on a new album you've been waiting for?

I told you guys two years ago in Indianapolis that'll be where you're heading. I am so happy and proud that all the hard work is starting to pay off! Congratulations to you and your families!!! Now get your butts to Europe! Brent and I and Stageninja will always have your backs Smiling - Iris

I'm still jammin' from the O'Brien appearance in '07...So happy to see our native Catawba-Yadkin Valley boys going nationwide agin on TV...Been with ya since near the start and I'll be with ya till glory. Amen.

Just finished listening to I and Love and You on NPR. I absolutely love it! I only wish "Down with the Shine" was on it, but that just leaves something to look forward to on the next one! See you on Letterman and Ferguson next week!

Thanks for the music, love you guys!

Thank you so much for the early gift! I have the full box set with autographs coming Tuesday but couldnt wait to listen! I love the recorded version of "and it spread". THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

I have been an Avett Brothers fan for many years...since their early days playing AWESOME music at bluegrass festivals and the likes. Well, I was looking forward to some new tunes, but not a new band. What happened to the Avett Brothers I knew and loved? What happened to the BANJO?! And Rick Rubin? Really??? What a let down. The Avett Brothers were something special. They were different. Now they sound like all the rest

Hooray for tv appearances! Congrats, guys! This is very exciting.

I could not be any happier for you guys. Much love and support from my family to the Avetts!!!

So thankful for your music and so exicted for the tv performances! I will be drinking lots of tea and pop that day

the entire album on nrp!
whoa It must be my birthday..
so very excited to see your upcoming televised performances.

today is a good day Smiling

it's even better than i thought it would be... thanks guys!

The flow from one song into the next is like a well told story. Loving "Head full of doubt" and "Ten Thousand Words" - the guitar is amazing on this one. Great variety. I closed my eyes and let the music carry me....lots of different emotions and images. Nobody does that quite like The Avett Brothers. Love it.

Awesome! That outta be good...just watch out for Lettermans flying pencils...stand behind Joe and Bob for protection

Late to the game, but ordered my deluxe box set today! Also listening to the album all day on NPR. Thanks guys...gotta say that " ten thousand words" is moving me ! One of my faves... the only thing that is a bit dissapointing is that " Late in life" isn't on the new LP...oh well...we'll get it someday...=0)

I am amazed and proud to see guys my age and from my hometown making it! Love it! I listen to you guys every single day...Smiling

I like the polished sounds from the album, but I fell in love with you guys when I saw you live, so I know you'll play your hearts out.
Any song will do, but please play "Laundry Room!"

I am not going to lie. I was a bit nervous about this album and I had my doubts. I absolutely love it! This is not the Avett Brothers that we are all used to but the album is great. Its full of truth and emotion. I can't go and say it's their best work but it is something new and different. Cheers to the Avett's! Traveling from Minnesota, I can't wait to see you in Iowa!

I think I will cable just to watch you guys on the television.

L O V E, love, loooove the new album. Everyone and their brother has heard about it from me at this point, and I will not stop listening until it stops playing. I love you guys!

Please come back to Georgia before six months has passed. Add some dates! We miss you, Augusta was nearly a week ago!

Now I've grown too aware of my mortality to let go and forget about dying.

I am sitting here listening to I and Love and You... and simply blown away. album after album you keep creating better music. Just as I thought that the major label and big producer may infact over due and try to take away from what we have all grown to know and love... you guys write your best work. simply blown away.
See you guys in Toronto!
Cheers

The new album is nothing short of amazing and I can't wait to see you guys on Letterman, show the world the loving, screaming, jumping Avetts we all know and love!

"Then somebody came and whispered in my ear, 'a country girl can't be made out of anybody here.'"

Surpasses expectation, hopes and dreams. I can listen to I and Love and You. What? Can't even processes it.

This is my favorite TAB album EVER!!! I'm listening to it on NPR and every song is better then the next. I can't wait to get mine....Thank you!!!!

I heart TAB

You guys are absolutely amazing! I totally agree with everyone that you need to rock those two shows! Don't hold back! For all the people in this country who haven't seen you live...whew...they need to know how passionate and rockin' you are. Love you avett bros and fellow fans! Can't wait for the next show!

Life is good...don't forget it

Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be
At least a little better than I've been so far

I love the album and the great news. Congrats on all of your success and we will see you in Memphis this Thursday. Keep safe and see you soon.

Congrats on the national TV spots!!! I'll definetly be staying up late to catch both. I am in complete awe of you all.
Your words speak to my heart and soul like no other music i've heard. The emotion and intensity at your live shows is just incredible!! You've sucked me in for life!
Thank you....thank you!

I am trying NOT to cry here at work - I am so happy to be able to listen to the whole damn album NOW!!!! To tell you fans the truth, I could not wait until 9/29. It was torture for me. I cannot wait to get my box set. Until then, I can listen with sheer joy and humbling emotions to the best band of musicians to arrive at the doormat of fame in over 30 years. The Avett Brothers - you deserve everything that is about to happen - the world will now know what outstanding artists you are. And in this era of techno-computer crap - you are keeping music alive. God bless you for this....

I’m walking with you,
I’m walking with you,
I might miss the meaning, but I’m catching the truth

Temporary is my time, Ain't nothin on this world that's mine, Except the will I found to carry on.
Free is not your right to choose, It's answering what's asked of you, To give the love you find until it's gone.

break a leg guys. ya'll deserve it. Smiling
