How many followers do you have? : )
At the moment, there are nearly 3,000 Mumford & Sons fans following this blog via tumblr. This is not counting everyone who is following via twitter and Facebook. I am grateful for each and every one of you, just as I’m sure Ted, Winston, Ben, and Marcus would be honored to have you all as fans.
I know things have been slow around here lately, but you know it’s difficult to find new things to post when the boys aren’t on the road. Thanks for sticking around, and look for things to pick up starting this weekend when Mumford & Sons perform at Amnesty International’s Secret Policeman’s Ball in New York on Sunday, March 4th!
Cheers!

It seems like a lot of your followers got tix to see M&S at the Ryman. You should do a reblog if you are going post. I don't have a tumblr, but I got tix to the Thurs show. We could all have a big M&S fan get together.
Hey, that’s exciting that you have the opportunity to go! Now that the concerts are less than a week away this might be a good way to generate some excitement (as if anyone would need help in that department). As a matter of fact, I might make that a new thing for Mumford & Sons Blog: as new concerts approach, l can make concert-specific posts for concert-goers to reblog as a sort of badge for their blogs. Thanks for the suggestion!
Look for the Nashville concert post later today!

EDIT - Single tickets to the event have already sold out. If you’re still interested in going, remember that there will be $10 tickets available at the venue box office (as capacity allows) 15 minutes prior to the screening.
It does make me feel better that I'm not the only one who hasn't heard anything from Artist Arena, however, if they don't send my tickets til Friday I probably will have to cancel my trip. I'm flying in from Oregon and my plane leaves Monday morning - I got tickets for the Tuesday show. This would have been my first time seeing them live, but maybe it wasn't meant to be.
Truly, I don’t think you should worry. They’re very good about getting tickets out with ample time before the concerts. Also, I didn’t realize you’d be coming from so far away; I figured you’d be driving in from maybe St. Louis or only a few hours away from Nashville. Don’t worry. You’ll get your tickets in time to travel and you’ll have the absolute time of your life on Tuesday night!
Hi. I was just wondering if you have received anything from Artist Arena about your presale tickets for the Ryman? Some people on the M&S forum state they got an email with a tracking number and they are expected to receive their tickets tomorrow. I haven't heard anything from Artist Arena other than the email confirming my tickets and the charge to my credit card when the tickets went on sale. Do you think I should call Artist Arena customer service?
I have not yet received anything regarding the tickets I purchased for the dates in Nashville, but I’m not concerned at this time. I’ve purchased Mumford & Sons tickets through Artist Arena before and there were no complications at all. Wait until Thursday before you call; that way, if they inadvertently didn’t send your tickets they would have ample time to take care of the problem by the end of business on Friday, meaning you’d certainly have them by whichever concert you’re going to next week.
However, I wouldn’t be surprised if you hear from them between now and then, so you needn’t be worried! Have a fantastic time at the concert, and don’t forget to submit your photos, videos, and concert experience stories to Mumford & Sons Blog so that I can share them with all my followers! Cheers!

Hey, I can't seem to watch Winston's "Windawgg’s Worldwide Winblog" video. :( Looks like the link's broken or something. Do you have another link to that video? Thanks in advance!
Hi! I do happen to have another link to that. Click here to watch “Windawgg’s Worldwide Winblog” in all its hilarious glory!
Thanks for the question, and please let me know if I can help with anything else!
I was wondering do you have all of their EPs for downloads?
Hello! I have many downloads available, but not all of the EPs. I did have The Cave EP posted for download but had to remove it because of a copyright claim. I take copyright and ownership very seriously, so I will most likely not post any of the other M&S EPs for download. The only EP still available on M&S Blog is The Wedding Band’s The First Dance.
With that said, why don’t you click here and explore the many different downloads I do have on Mumford & Sons Blog? There are close to 20 collections/live concerts and nearly 300 individual tracks available. You can also search for specific song posts and downloads by clicking here. Enjoy and please let me know if I can help with anything else!

Wait so I'm kinda confused do you get tickets for the Midnight Ramble on the Levonhelm website orrr....
Yes, you would have bought tickets on the Levon helm website. But a quick look shows that it is already sold out!
I apologize for not answering sooner, but the server is down at my office (where I swear I actually work and don’t spend the entire day on tumblr!) and I am answering this on my iPhone. Once I have Internet again I will try to locate more information for you.
Mumford & Sons to perform at Levon Helm's Midnight Ramble in Woodstock, New York on March 10, 2012! →
poughkeepsiejournal.com
Mumford & Sons, the breakout band that garnered numerous Grammy nominations this year, will perform at Levon Helm’s Midnight Ramble house concert in Woodstock March 10.
Mumford & Sons have played a critical role in the recent surge in interest in acoustic, roots-based, Americana music, the genre of song that Helm helped craft decades ago as a member of The Band. Mumford & Sons in 2011 performed with Bob Dylan at the Grammy Awards.
On March 31, Los Lobos, the Los Angeles-based, Mexican-American rock ensemble, will perform at the Midnight Ramble, which is held at Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock.
The Levon Helm Band, featuring the former drummer, mandolin player and vocalist for The Band, will headline each Ramble. Helm on Feb. 12 won his third consecutive Grammy, for Best Americana Album, for “Ramble At The Ryman.”
Tickets for both shows go on sale at 10 a.m. Wednesday [February 22, 2012]. Visit www.levonhelm.com for ticket prices and more information.

Yeah, I just really want to thank you for everything you do and put into this blog. I know that life would be very dull without it, or at least my life anyway. But, I truely appretiate all of this and rally want to thank you. Your a great person, with a great blog, about a great band. ;)
hey :) ... i have things i'd love to send you if you're intersted but i can't seem to find a way to do so... i guess it falls under the category "fan art" but i don't have URL's.. only jpeg files from my hard drive... they are wallpapers, and i wanted to send you my email address for you to contact me if you were interested but links are not allowed in questions so... ???
Hello! There are a few ways you can go about this. Firstly, you could simply send me your email address in a message like this, but “fudge” the address in some way, such as: fakename(at)email(dot)com. Then I could email you and you could send the files to me.
The more direct way to get the files to me would be to use the Submit page, to which you can find a link directly below the “Questions and Requests” button on the sidebar of Mumford & Sons Blog. On the Submit page, you can send links, email addresses, upload images and more!
If you have multiple files to submit, however, it might be easier to simply send me your email address because tumblr only allows for one photo to be submitted at a time. Either way, I can’t wait to hear from you!
