   About Roadside Graves
The Roadside Graves were slipped out after a long road trip across America. A few of us were tired of driving and stopped in a small town for dinner. A typical meat and potatoes diner in the town of Salina, Utah. The only interesting thing about the place was it's sign. After the meal we stopped in a bar to buy package goods to help us through another night of tents and rain. We met a bartender, her sister in law, and a few of the locals. We spent the whole night in Salina, Utah. There were a few marriage proposals, a few dances on a pool table, and some lost chances. After that night we had a song, "Song for a Dry State" and well we needed a band.

After careful consideration, and with a fair knowledge of the catalog, I can confidently state that Ruby is the greatest Roadside song ever written and recorded. My mind is officially blown.
