I guess there is other things in the Czech Republic more than just the guns we seem to like pretty well. Type in:
Country Sisters-Lets twist again-(2006)
Country Sisters-Orange Blossom Special-(2006)
Pretty easy on the eyes also.

Thanks, they are good! I watched a couple of their videos. I had never heard of them. I guess I missed them along the way.

Thanks for the reminder. I tripped over them on youtube a while back. Great performers. Not hard on the eyes either.

Another reminder that a lot of European's are really into old time American lore. A while back I was looking up cowboy style canvas bedrolls. I found massive info in the UK. It seems they have groups there that are cowboy oriented and get together on weekends. On horseback with authentic gear. Much the same way as the Black Powder guys here with rendezvous's and reenactment's.

Yes, there is a huge cowboy culture in places like France, Spain and Germany. They love anything western. There are SASS style clubs, etc and lots of shops in the UK and Europe that cater to period style clothing and gear. I think it's great that there's such an appetite for it. The old west will never die but it might relocate to Dusseldorf....

I usually play some shows during the summer at a guest ranch near home, and I help them with their guest cattle drives. The last couple of years there has been a young couple from the Czech Republic there helping out and cooking, etc. The young guy works in the Czech Republic at a Wild West amusement park. This kid straps on a set of pearly handle colts and does some pretty slick and fancy gun twirling. Very fast and professional. He also does rope tricks and cracks a mean bullwhip. Fun to watch.

Love the Orange Blossom Special. I watched several different videos of them doing it live and some were great and some were, well not so great. Would love to find a recorded studio version.
