I'm a fan (and you should be too) because...my husband and I stumbled upon the Avetts by accident, while out with our best friends celebrating our friend's birthday, after he had battled (and won) with scary disease. We were ready to celebrate. Dinner and a band. Then, on the stage came these wonderful men. I smiled the entire concert, giggled, danced. An amazing night. We bought CDs that night, and were instant, addicted fans. We were lucky enough to have them come through our hometown again a few months later and were the FIRST in the town to get tickets. Another AMAZING night, this time, we knew each lyric. This time too, we were the only ones, but we waited at the bus and met Joe, Bob, Seth and Scott. As most of you know, meeting them and seeing how authentic they are only boosts our enthusiasm. We got a puppy this year, and named her Avett. Our kids are fans. It's awesome. We look forward to celebrating our 15 year wedding anniversary in SF with two nights of the Avetts.
We met the boys after their show in Chico, and talked about the "Everybody Stares" documentary of the Police and how their lives are very similar to that..... very gracious and appreciative men.
