Just one more Valentine's Day treat for the ones I love

  1. The Avetts are my new rock'n'roll boyfriends. I've even asked Mr Blurn to grow a Ned Kelly beard just like them.

  2. I can see Mr. Blurn in a beard like that. Do you have any of their albums? I never heard of them until Mr. Beazly happened to see them on the Grammy's the other night.

  3. Wow! Where did they come from?

  4. They seem to have been around for quite some time. I think I need a couple of their albums.

  5. Mr Blurn has been a fan for a while. I think we have all of their albums, but the kids & I especially like "Murder in the City" & another song called "Die Die Die" which, surprisingly like "Murder in the City", isn't morbid at all (nothing like a van full of kids belting out 'die, die, die' on a leisurely drive!).

  6. They come from North Carolina and you need all of their albums.

  7. Now I am imagining Mr. Blurn in an Avett Bros. beard with all the kids singing, "Die, die, die," behind him.

    Congratulations times two on your happy Blurn news, by the way. Sorry I missed you on Skype last Saturday.

  8. Mrs. Blurn, you wouldn't like the beard. Trust me on that.

  9. I've already been half way there, that's why she wants me to grow it again. Maybe it hides my features.

  10. The Avetts should offer a fake beard with every CD, just like Weezer and their Snuggies.

    I've been listening to more of the Avetts on YouTube. I think I will be ordering some of their CDs soon.

  11. Soon may be too late. Order now or go to iTunes! You need the Avett's. It'll make you a better blogger.

  12. I can believe it - you can always improve by listening to brilliant writers.

  13. My first thought about these boys was 'That's a good song!" Then I thought they should wear shirts with sleeves, and buy a razor, and get out of that city or at least get different jobs...ones with less murdering.

  14. I don't think they're married to the Biblical patriarch beards. Just have a look at the other Avett video I posted. Anyway, I think they wear beards better than most men can.

    And I agree, it is a darn good song!
