I tivoed the Letterman show and absolutely LOVED the M Ward performance there! I’ve never seen him live, and now I can’t wait.
Matt is so amazing
every time i’ve seen him he’s blown me away more than the last
oh. my. gosh. finally a live performance. brilliant. It’s like discovering the Beatles before Sullivan. Am I the only one who can play all of his albums back to back and just love life?
