I really love this album. I just checked my Apple replay for 2023 and I listened to it for 1,097 minutes. I still listen to it and continue to love it

Me complaining to @VanPlating about not getting a guitar part perfectly right
VP: Rome wasn’t built in a day
Me: Yeah but it burned down in a day from bad fiddle playing.

🤣 I hate to be bored
I think @VanPlating’s next album should be called 8 chords and the truth. Help me with my campaign.

BEFORE THE RUINER…
… There were these two.
I have a limited number of physical copies of “Not Your Friend” and “Young, Dumb, and in Love.” I’m putting the proceeds from these sales toward finishing The Ruiner.
When these copies are gone, they’re gone.

Sitting here learning “Here You Come Again” on guitar for a Dolly tribute show in a little over a week and y’all… She did NOT have to go that hard on the chord progression but man oh mama, DID SHE EVER… 😮💨🙌
Musicians, if you want to test your mettle, go try to learn

I know 90s angst was cringe and too existential but can we bring a little bit of it back? Everyone’s too indifferent and nonchalant

what a 10/10 Friday night in Orange blossom country !! 🐊🎻🙌🏼
I finally got to meet and see Van Plating at Skipper's Smokehouse and she blew me away with her singing! Voice of an angel! 10/10 🫶🏻
And if you ever get the chance to see Ward Davis live you better go! His storytelling alone kept me entertained all night and he’s pretty good at the singing and playing too! 10/10 thanks bud 🤠
Another great night at 𝐒𝐤𝐢𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐫’𝐬 𝐒𝐦𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 in the sunshine state !! ☀️🐊
