Your concert moved me to tears -- it was incredible. Every year, I had been hoping you would do "This Old Guitar".  This was the perfect end to a perfect concert. I have been to several John Denver tributes and the thing that I like most about your tribute is that you sing the songs like I remember them.  Thank you again for a wonderful evening.  --Karen Muchmore, Colorado, August, 2008 Wow, what a great John Denver tribute concert in Estes Park! Thank you. My wife and I both thoroughly enjoyed it, being fans of both your music and John Denver's. This was so beautiful to me that it brought tears to my eyes. All the songs your band performed were terrific, and there are times when something is so especially beautiful to me that it transcends just sound and touches the soul. This was an example and if you haven't recorded it, I would encourage you to do so, because I would enjoy hearing it whenever I wanted. Thanks so much! --Thom Pugh, Estes Park, Colorado, August, 2008 We saw it rainin’ fire in the sky for sure in Estes Park, Colorado Saturday, August 18, 2007 as Windstar favorites Brad and Kathy Fitch entertained almost 2000 fans of John Denver.
