I hadn't Googled CMT for a year or more and was surprised to find that they now have a web site [http://www.chadmitchelltrio.com/] and are doing concerts again. It's too sad that I'm stuck in the middle of Arkansas and they are performing on the coasts.

My envy goes out to all who are able to attend one of their concerts. I live in Hot Springs Village, Arkansas, a community of about 13,000+, primarily retirees, and we get groups like Kingston Trio and the Platters where you're lucky if one performer was in the group originally, and then there's CMT, still together!

It also looks like more places are carrying their CDs now. It would be nice if the increased exposure and willingness to tour might get them into my general area.

I just got a new 8GB MP3 player and went through about 5000 MP3s on my hard drive to pick and choose the best songs off albums to put on it, but when I got to CMT, *everything* went on. Not a lemon in the bunch. What a great group.
