Wylie and the Wild West

Over the last few years Mark has become a fan of 'Cowboy Music'. Cowboy music is not to be confused with country music. Cowboy music is about cowboys, horses and the western way of life. You won't hear it on the radio. Slowly I got drug along and I'm a fan of Cowboy Music too.

One night last winter we were watching "The Ride With Aaron Ralston" on RFD TV (I actually think Mark was asleep on the couch with me). There is always a music video at the end of his show of some 'Cowboy Music' singer and that night it was Wylie and the Wild West. After the show was over I 'googled' Wylie and found he had some youtube video's and a website. So, over several days Mark and I watched youtubes and got hooked. On his website www.wylieww.com we noticed that he would be performing in Sheridan and knew we had to go. We took off yesterday afternoon and went to the Wylie and The Wild West show in Sheridan. It was great. He played for an hour and took a twenty minute break to sign autographs and came back and entertained for another hour. It was a heck of a good time.

If you have any interested in watching youtube to see what kind of music we are into, the first video you should watch is "The Yodeling Fool" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPaoJv-NrEU&feature=PlayList&p=B38F05EEB553C24E&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=5. (Or just go to youtube.com and do a search for Wylie and the Wild West). He tells a little bit about himself and its pretty funny. You knew the commercial for "Yahoo", Wylie made that up 'Yahoo' yodel for them. Other favorites are "Whoop Up Trail", Kaleb and I like that. Marks favoritive is "A Good One", Wylie also shows cutting horses and this song is about his favorite horse. I also like "The Gather", its about the fall gather of cows and calves. There are quite a few songs about Montana. Wylie grew up close to Glacier Park in MT on a ranch.

Hope you enjoy it!!!
