Well, seems we were just thankin' folks for comin'
out to last year's Third Annual New Year's Hank-O-Rama,
when all of sudden the time for Hank-O IV is almost
here."

And like always, we sure can't wait to pay tribute
to ole Hank the 55th anniversary of his passin'.
We also wanna thank everybody who came out to
our gig at the Five Spot in Nashville, where we
had a great time, and fulfilled a longtime dream
of playing in Music City USA. Gotta say, though,
Nashville ain't got nothin' on the live country
music scene right here in NYC!
