Since'horseshoe' is one word, we thought it might be some special kind of band. But you may be correct and we just missed the original reference on Keillor's show |

It seems possible. Then one only needs to tune a scale full and start your own Horseshoe Band. Just a morning fantasy. Roger in Baltimore |
