    I legit love that for you, and I can sneak up to what you’re describing, but it never quite lands and I eventually get worn out by trying. I’m in awe of some of the Banjo pickers I’ve heard, but it doesn’t hit me in the soul like a clever turn of phrase that rings true to life. To that end, I’m more of a Townes Van Zandt or Todd Snider or Robert Earl Keen guy, though I know Keen in particular loves him some bluegrass.
