How Many Christmas Trees?

Posted on: December 10th, 2010 by Tim Surrett

Merry Christmas Everybody! I hope you’re having a great Holiday  Season.  We’re officially in shop/panic mode at our house. My wife has four trees up and decorated so far. How many do you guys end up with?

I hope you will be spending part of your Holiday with us at the Colonial Theater in Canton, NC on December 17. Tony Rice and Bobby Hicks are coming to have a Christmas party with us. This is going to be an amazing night with two of my personal heroes. Please be a part of it!

Thanks for being part of the Balsam Range family. We love you all!

Tim

    WOW! Berryville was fantastic! Hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. Frank Jurney said Steep Canyon could follow anybody…Not Saturday! They were good but you guys stole the show. Looking forward to seeing you again. Merry Christmas to all. Andy.

    Merry Christmas!

    I don’t have any this year – now that I’m living on my own, I don’t see much point in decorating for just myself. :)

    I just heard the song ‘Trains I Missed’ for the first time today and now I can’t stop listening. It brought tears to my eyes. It is my new Favorite Song! Thank You for sharing your gifts!

    • Thanks so much Amanda! We appreciate the kind words and we’re glad you like the song. I love that one myself…what a great message we can all relate to. We were lucky to snag it and think Buddy was born to sing it. COME SEE US SOON!

    Greetings guys, caught your show in Berryville and was completely blown away. Great to finally see you guys live. Caleb, thanks for the burnining Ga. down lesson after your show as well as the Blue Chip pick tip, it put the tackiness right back in it. Hope you and your families have a safe and Happy Holidays!

    We caught you guys at the Pig and were also at the Trains CD release party…you’re all great as individual musicians/singers, but together you’re awesome! Your upcoming dates/guests at the Colonial look good…can’t wait to make some of them. PS…your CD’s can’t be worn out – I’ve tried!

    For my 60th birthday I asked for tickets to the Balsam Range Concert at the Colonial Theater. It was one of the best birthday gifts I have received. Awesome does not describe the sold out concert Friday night at the Colonial. Tony Rice and Bobby Hicks was the topping on my birthday cake. Thanks Balsam Range and a very special thanks to Teresa Raulerson for such a great gift. Hope to see y’all at the Colonial in January. Steve Raulerson

    • Happy Birthday Steve! Glad you could be with us and know we were a part of your birthday like that. We had so much fun. Thanks for the note, visit, and come to the rest of the shows….we have a great lineup and it will be fun.
