Oh man, where can I even start? On top of everything else:

Mudcatters will fill your house up with laughter, butcher your lyrics, hold down your couches, walk your dogs (and sing with them too), torment your cats, wash your dishes, do your yardwork, row your boats, and stay up until 4 in the morning to teach you new songs and chords.

Mudcatters will mail you music, books, movies, bookmarks, valentines, margarita mix and cool rocks, World War 2 music, Train Songs, Opry videotapes, xeroxes of chord fingerings, dog jokes, green ducks and strip-tease pasties.

Mudcatters will call you on the phone to check up, hang out, buzz you fresh home from the pub to not-too-drunkenly sing you a song they did that night, or just assure you that your bunk at the NYCFTTS is secured.

Love'em dearly.
