I heard an interview one time with ketch that said he was driving one night and it came to him. And then he decided to make it happen.
Is this right? |

The old name was "The Old Crow Medicine Show", they dopped the "the" for their nearly self titled album O.C.M.S. Maybe they've dropped it for good? |

I do love that video. The whole thing is a classic. Ketch's responces are razor sharp and he never stumbles when making funny remarks. Got to love them |

Where does the name Old Crow Medicine Show come from?
Ketch:I had a vision one night while driving home from a dishwashing job that I would have a band and we would go to Canada and go on a tour and it was like a circus. |

That's one of my favorites! (Hard to single tunes out, though, isn't it?) |
