They're good guys. I got to know them pretty well. Decedents of the McCoy's from the Hatfields/McCoys and from Point Pleasant, WV. They have some funny stories...especially when they get drinking and start talking about the Mothman. They are probably my favorite guys of all the musicians I've met.

To be honest, too many to count...I went to my first concert in 6th grade, and 18 years later I still go to a few a year.

The "number" also depends if you count a festival with dozens of concerts as 1, or as the "dozens" I actually saw at that festival.

I've gone to at least 15 "festivals" where there are dozens of concerts at the said festival and at least 20 other concerts.
