Railroad Earth 1.13.24

Washington's Fort Collins, CO Words & Photos by Nicholas Stock A thick frost formed on the windows of Washington’s as fans huddled together in line trying to keep warm. After several dry months we were getting nailed by a nationwide cold snap complete with a few inches of snow. By the time doors opened at 7 PM the temperature was around negative five.

Those brave enough to venture out to the veritably deserted Old Town Fort Collins received an absolute hometown throw down complete with parents and family dotting the crowd. Tickets were available at the door but elbow room was at a premium as music lovers packed in for the festivities. I found myself next a chunky contingent of elder fans who I later learned were the parents of the opening band the Friendly Reminders. The Friendly Reminders brought the whole gang to The Aggie. The Reminders are a four piece string band anchored by Ian Forster on guitar and Meg Rice on the upright bass. On the surface they are another young and fuzzy bluegrass band, but the lyrics reveal a
