Andy Wiesenhofer, my buddy, my brother, a mirror to my finer side, he and I go back a ways, hahhahah. And at a certain point in time, ,, we decided to get together to play some music. Out of that was born a friendship, and an excellent bunch of memories. Andy plays whatever instrument he picks up, just by force of talent. He is a great songwriter, great guitarist, and a consumate cowboy poet. I've heard a lot of them, and this one's the best. His songs are excellent, and his covers of other writer's songs, almost always outdo the originals. For an example of this, ask him to play, "The Border Affair".

We formed a group at one point, that included Jodi Wiesenhofer and Mary Oltman. That produced some hauntingly beautiful songs. And some great fun as well. Jodi is Andy's sister, and Mary is his cousin. A lot of things about Andy revolve around family and God. He is a most devote churchmember, and still knows how to relax and have a good party. :) His beautiful wife Shelley, is his perfect counterpart. They and their lovely daughters, Amanda, Ethanie and Rebekah, are some of the finest people I have ever known.
