Alison Krauss is Not Crazy

This one is for Coulter.

We were going to the D.I. day before the other day and we were listening to Alison Krauss and she was singing this song about "nobody as crazy as me." What's up with that? Alison Krauss isn't crazy at all! She is very nice and she has a beautiful voice. I saw her before in the mountains when she was singing to me and playing her violin.

Mostly we listen to her songs in the car, like when we go to Wal-Mart or the mountains, but I really want to go see her again. I hope she knows I have a blog because I think she would really like my blog. I used to think she played the ukulele, but now I know it's a violin. It would be awesome if I could play with her. I could play my ukulele and she could play her violin. A violin is kind of like a ukulele but you play it with a stick. The guitar part of the violin is most like the ukulele, but the stick part of the violin is not like the ukulele at all.

[Dad's Note: Technically, Alison plays the fiddle. Violin, fiddle, ukulele- all pretty much the same, right? The song is "Crazy as Me." The album is Lonely Runs Both Ways. Good stuff.

Bridger, I love listening to fiddle players. Alison Krauss is a great fiddler. Here's a link to a picture of one of my favorite fiddle players:

Eileen Ivers plays a really cool blue electric fiddle!

Love ya,

Bridger,

Well it looks as though you and I have something in common! I love Alison Krauss too, and I wish she'd come near me soon!

If you think hard, Alison is just a little crazy! She's so fun and out going! Haha! She's one of a kind!

Her music is just absolutely beautiful!

It's great to see such a young fan like you, express your thoughts with others about this wonderful lady!

Have a great day, keep playing little guy!

Just another AKUS fan,

Kristin

Hi Bridger,

You know, there are two different kinds of crazy. First, there is the kind that nobody likes or trusts, someone who doesn't know the difference between what is real and what is only imagination. Then there is the GOOD kind of crazy, and it is only called crazy because all the boring people with no sense of humor SAY it is crazy, and that is the kind of person (like Alison) who cares more about making beautiful music and being a beautiful person inside and out, than she cares about what boring people might say about her. I hope you are the GOOD kind of crazy, just like me. Have a great Spring.
