We tell bad jokes. We pull stupid faces. We take the piss out of each other. A lot. And we play songs. Some of them are rip-roaring up-tempo bluegrass numbers telling tales of drunkenness, poor decisions and love. Others are lilting country ballads full of heartache, retrospection and (occasionally) contentment. All of them come from the heart. Even the one about a van.
