…and Maryland, the Paint Branch Ramblers keep on rambling.

Though secretly sad that the band didn’t collapse entirely in my absences, I am at least outwardly delighted to see them all up and running again – and with new material (I’ll have to find out what “Your Cheating Heart or Here” means).

And I’m glad to see that someone, somewhere – anywhere – was playing the “Lawson Family Murder” this Christmas.

Here’s a clip featuring a clipped version of last year’s Ramblers, playing in sub-freezing weather on the ground of a one-time CCC camp in Masten, Lycoming County, Pennsylvania. Left to right, that’s Peter Jensen, Mike Paul, and Ryan Jerving.
