Great Show in Ellsworth

The cowboys really warmed up Ellsworth, Maine this weekend. I was dubious when my wife got tickets to such an odd sounding group; after an hour of pathetic preliminary acts I was wishing I had gone to the basketball game or watch the Williams sisters battle it out for the Australian Open crown. But about 2 minutes after the cowboys came on I knew I was in the right place after all. Simply put, some of the best reggae I have ever heard. The songs are great and Bird can really make the west come alive. What a great sound and what a big turn on for the town! Thanks and do come back.
